Is this the right place to put this stuff? This file seems to be about
implementing the interface for interacting with the ultravisor. I would
rather expect something like arch/s390/kernel/virtio.c 

Should we ever get arch hooks for balloon those could go in
arch/s390/kernel/virtio.c as well.

Not only easier to read but does not produce warnings
if !is_prot_virt_guest(). I strongly prefer the variant proposed by
Connie.

Otherwise LGTM.
