Why not include/linux/gunyah.h? Why asm-generic? This is not an
architecture.
My idea here is to differentiate between code that interacts with hypercalls
and code that uses the abstractions provided on top of those hypercalls.
include/asm-generic/gunyah.h contains architecture-independent definitions
for hypercalls. Hypercalls are architecture-specific.
For instance, I wanted to avoid a header file that mixes the definitions for
the message-queue mailbox with the hypercall definitions that the
message-queue mailbox driver itself uses.
I can put it all in include/linux/gunyah.h and delineate with some clear
comments, but I initially felt it would be better to have separate header
file.
Please put it all in one place, this is just one tiny driver and should
not abuse the asm-generic location at all, no one is only going to want
just this one file, they are going to need the whole thing or nothing.
Let's say when we do the RISC-V port for Gunyah, we may need to move it
back to asm-generic then?
