Clearly not something that would happen but I can put the #ifdef inside
handle___pkvm_hyp_alloc_selftest() so it looks cleaner:

  static void handle___pkvm_hyp_alloc_selftest(struct kvm_cpu_context *host_ctxt)
  {
          struct pkvm_hyp_req req = { .type = PKVM_HYP_NO_REQ };
          int ret = -EPERM;

  #ifdef CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG
          ret = hyp_allocator_selftest();
          if (ret == -ENOMEM) {
                  req.type = PKVM_HYP_REQ_HYP_ALLOC_SELFTEST;
                  req.mem.nr_pages = hyp_alloc_selftest_topup_needed();
          }
  #endif
          cpu_reg(host_ctxt, 1) = ret;
          pkvm_hyp_req_to_smccc(host_ctxt, &req);
  }

Regarding pkvm_call_hyp_req(), how about a proper kerneldoc?

 /**
  * pkvm_call_hyp_req() - Issue an HVC that can return hypervisor requests
  * @f: Hypervisor function symbol to call.
  * @...: Arguments to pass to the hypercall.
  *
  * Re-issue an HVC and process any pending hypervisor request until completion
  * or error.
  *
  * Only use this helper for HVCs whose hypervisor handlers format their return
  * registers with pkvm_hyp_req_to_smccc().
  *
  * Return: Result of the hypercall or a negative error if the hyp request
  * handling failed.
