This makes sense overall. Considering that the swiotlb-xen case and the
virtio case are mutually exclusive, I would write it like this:

if (arch_has_restricted_virtio_memory_access() && xen_is_virtio_device(dev))
xen_virtio_setup_dma_ops(dev);
else if (xen_swiotlb_detect())
dev->dma_ops = &xen_swiotlb_dma_ops;

There is no need for #ifdef (also see other comments).
