Overall I'm a big fan of this, but I think there's an undo problem
here.  Per 03/13, kc_undo_func is only called for successfully
completed chunks and each kc_thread_func should handle cleanup of any
intermediate work before failure.  That's not done here afaict.  Should
we be calling the vfio_pin_map_dma_undo() manually on the completed
range before returning error?

PMD_SIZE chunks almost seems too convenient, I wonder a) is that really
enough work per thread, and b) is this really successfully influencing
THP?  Thanks,

Alex
