This comment isn't useful because it only repeats what we can already
see from the "IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86)" below and it doesn't say
anything about *why*.

Didn't we just go though an exercise of adding interfaces for
arch-specific things, i.e., 831c1ae725f7 ("PCI: hv: Make the code arch
neutral by adding arch specific interfaces")? Maybe this should be
another such interface?

If you add Hyper-V support for a third arch, this #ifdef will likely
be silently incorrect. If you add an interface, there's at least a
clue that this needs to be evaluated.
