I prefer a top-level BhyvePkg.
If most edk2 consumers wouldn't like to see a top-level BhyvePkg
directory, I can certainly live with OvmfPkg/Bhyve.
I can also live with OvmfPkg/Bhyve*, OvmfPkg/Library/Bhyve*, etc, modules.
So I guess these would be my choices in decreasing order of preference.
(To be clear, I consider my option#3 still a lot better than not having
bhyve support in upstream edk2 at all.)
In either case, "Maintainers.txt" should get a new section listing the
bhyve-specific modules as being under your and Peter Grehan's
reviewership ("R").

I haven't been aware that this is a done deal, but if it is, it makes me
glad! I've always wanted bhyve stuff to be in edk2 and not in
edk2-platforms.
Thanks!
