Thanks for looking into this while I was away.

I think the issue is not just CONFIG_KVM=m && CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM=y -- it also requires CONFIG_VFIO_PCI=y && CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_CORE=y.  This combination results in building in vfio_pci (which tries to link the calls to kvm_s390_pci_register_kvm and kvm_s390_pci_unregister_kvm which is not built in).

However... this tristate + IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM) check in kvm_host.h will not solve the issue.  Rather, due to the #ifdef CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM in include/linux/vfio_pci_core.h, this change will just cause us to never call kvm_s390_pci_register_kvm or kvm_s390_pci_unregister_kvm when CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM=m, effectively treating CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM=m as a 'n' and we don't get the zdev kvm extensions, which I don't think was the intent.

I'm still thinking & am open to other ideas, but one solution to avoiding building in KVM would be to go back to using symbol_get for these 2 interfaces (kvm_s390_pci_register_kvm and kvm_s390_pci_unregister_kvm) as was done in a prior version of this series like virt/kvm/vfio.c does and otherwise leave CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_ZDEV_KVM as-is.
