The code is unreachable for HVM or PVH, and it also makes little sense
in auto-translated environments. On Arm, with
xen_{create,destroy}_contiguous_region() both being stubs, I have a hard
time seeing what good the Xen specific variant does - the generic one
ought to be fine for all purposes
xen_swiotlb and pci_xen_swiotlb_init() are only used within the file
defining them, so make them static and remove the stubs. Otoh
pci_xen_swiotlb_detect() has a use (as function pointer) from the main
pci-swiotlb.c file - convert its stub to a #define to NULL.

The driver's module init function, pcifront_init(), invokes
xen_pv_domain() first thing. That construct produces constant "false"
when !CONFIG_XEN_PV. Hence there's no point building the driver in
non-PV configurations.
Drop the (now implicit and generally wrong) X86 dependency: At present,
While the hypervisor hasn't been enforcing this, we would still better
avoid issuing requests with GFNs not aligned to the requested order.
Instead of altering the value also in the call to panic(), drop it
there for being static and hence easy to determine without being part
of the panic message.
The primary intention really was the last patch, there you go (on top
of what is already in xen/tip.git for-linus-5.15) ...
1: swiotlb-xen: ensure to issue well-formed XENMEM_exchange requests
2: PCI: only build xen-pcifront in PV-enabled environments
3: xen/pci-swiotlb: reduce visibility of

Why does the buffer need to be allocated by Dom0? If it was allocated
by DomU, it could use grants to
