The hypervisor need a Guest Physical Address to access the data, so
virt_to_phys() is used here.

Yes. Because HSM driver has little knowledge to do the validation.

The device is just for dev_*() usage. The driver links all active VMs in
a global list acrn_vm_list. And also the notification interrupt
(hypervisor to Service VM) is global. So, there is only one device.

The hypervisor and the driver only support X86_64 platform for now. So, the
endian should be certain.

To keep same layout with the hypervisor. Because the structure will be
passed to hypervisor directly.

Unfortunately, no. I have added some documents for some strutures
in the code via kernel-doc format.

The hypervisor wants to access aligned data block to improve the
efficiency. Currently, the hypervisor only runs on x86_64 platform.
