Where else to put it then?... The other way to go would be some global map
of pid<->iommu_group_mem_list which needs to be available from both VFIO
and KVM.

Ufff. gup() returns the number of pages pinned or -errno if none. So if the
return value is positive but less than the requested number of pages, it is
still an error. Functions like this make me nervous :(

I only need struct page* when release the registered area. In other cases I
just need fast conversion from an userspace address to a host physical
address, including real mode. Ideally I would have to use page_address()
which will work in real mode in my case but in general it does not have to.
Using addresses rather than page structs makes it more explicit - I need an
address, I store an address, simple.
I can change to page structs if you think it makes more sense, should I?

Ouch. Nothing. And I cannot think of any nice fast solution here...
I can remove @mapped at all and do kref_get/put(&mem->kref) instead; a
container will hold one reference too. And add a flag to
mm_iommu_table_group_mem_t to know if mm_iommu_release has been called -
this way I will know that was the very last reference, otherwise I'll
return -EBUSY.
Or change mm_iommu_lookup() to do kref_get() and require every caller of it
also call mm_iommu_put() and only call mm_iommu_mapped_update() when the
reference is elevated. And change mm_iommu_put() to return a special code
if that was the very last put() (will be checked by
VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_UNREGISTER_MEMORY handler only, others would not care).
Any ideas?
I am pretty sure there is something very cool (like RCU) which allows
avoiding locks in this situation, I am just too ignorant and do not know it :)

Is it some generic rule that errors must always be "int"? I was just told
that gcc on PPC64 will generate an extra instruction to cut 64bit long to
32bit int so I am just trying to use "long" everywhere. Very simple but
still optimization :)
