This statement confuses me a bit.

It's worth to mention that both arch/s390/boot/uv.c (for the
decompressor) and arch/s390/kernel/uv.c (for the main kernel) are only
built when either CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST or
CONFIG_KVM is enabled.
Both arch/s390/boot/Makefile and arch/s390/kernel/Makefile contain:
obj-$(findstring y, $(CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST) $(CONFIG_PGSTE))   += uv.o

So this makes the variable available when
CONFIG_PROTECTED_VIRTUALIZATION_GUEST or CONFIG_KVM (expressed via
CONFIG_PGSTE) is enabled. Hence no need for extra conditions for variable
declaration.

hm, EXPORT_SYMBOL(uv_info) is not needed without CONFIG_KVM and this saves
1 symbol export, but I'd still made EXPORT_SYMBOL follow the declaration
immediately. Documentation/process/coding-style.rst mentions that only
for function declarations though.
