The definition you have here is unused. I think you can drop it. Also
why do you need this forward declaration? Couldn't you just leave
free_mem_range below as a static and still have this compile?

I'm not sure this comment makes much sense to me. Shouldn't the
iov_to_buf be limiting you anyway? Why do you need the additional gpa
check?

Why pull this out as two separate buffers? Why not just define a
structure that consists of the two uint64_t values and then pull the
entire thing as one buffer? I'm pretty sure the solution as you have
it now opens you up to an error since you could have a malicious guest
only give you a part of the structure and you really should be
verifying you get the entire structure.

As I mentioned before it might make more sense to use MADV_DONTNEED
instead of just disabling this functionality if the host kernel
doesn't have MADV_FREE support. That way you would still have the
functionality on kernels prior to 4.5 if they need it.

Same here. It might make more sense to use the POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED
instead of just making it invalid.
