As I wrote in the previous reply, I also prefer to share the code
between x86 and ARM, and I think it could look like:
int arch_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access(void)
{
return xen_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access();
}
[...]
static inline int xen_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access(void)
{
return (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_XEN_VIRTIO) && xen_domain());
}
But let's check with Juergen and Boris.

No, good point. I don't know about X86_32. This is another detail where
Juergen or Boris should comment.
