If I understand the patch correctly, then the substitutions themselves are independent of the VM and only the configuration whether they should be used or not depends on code specific to HotSpot.

A more general module must never depend on a more specific module. A module may be specific in more than one dimension, "com.oracle.graal.hotspot.amd64.test” is for example a testing package specific to HotSpot and AMD64. A module marked with “api” can only depend on other modules marked with “api”. We should probably enforce these rules in the mx script.

I don't think so, there is only the Javadoc link to lafo. But you can 
use `mx projectgraph` to build the graph from the sources (and there is 
also IGV support `mx projectgraph --igv`).
