It needs an apostrophe then it makes more sense “Windows’ Subsystem for Linux”

It is a Windows Subsystem, that caters to running Linux.

It’s a functional title not an architectural one.

Subsystem isn't used as a random English word here, "Windows Subsystem" is already a fixed term. So you wouldn't introduce a possessive relation into the term when using it.
Indeed, I was trying to make it easier for you.
Or a colon:

    Windows Subsystem for: Linux
