The code is unreachable for HVM or PVH, and it also makes little sense
in auto-translated environments. On Arm, with
xen_{create,destroy}_contiguous_region() both being stubs, I have a hard
time seeing what good the Xen specific variant does - the generic one
ought to be fine for all purposes there. Still Arm code explicitly
references symbols here, so the code will continue to be included there.
Instead of making PCI_XEN's "select" conditional, simply drop it -
SWIOTLB_XEN will be available unconditionally in the PV case anyway, and
is - as explained above - dead code in non-PV environments.
This in turn allows dropping the stubs for
xen_{create,destroy}_contiguous_region(), the former of which was broken
anyway - it failed to set the DMA handle output.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
