Right. But pci_xen_swiotlb_detect() will only do something for Xen PV guests, and those guests don't run on hyperV. It's either xen_pv_domain() (i.e. hypervisor_is_type(X86_HYPER_XEN_PV)) or hypervisor_is_type(X86_HYPER_MS_HYPERV) but never both. So I don't think there needs to be a dependency between the two callbacks.
