Yes, we noted this shortfall in its design, but we're also not
currently in danger of using anything in the upper half of the 64-bit
address space. In fact vfio_listener_skipped_section() uses bit 63 to
filter out PCI BAR sizing operations that the QEMU PCI core erroneously
sends out to MemoryListeners.

The high water marker would track the highest iova+size < 2^64. If an
unmap occurs that covers that high water marker, the marker is reset to
the start of the unmap. If an unmap of the full 64-bit address space
is requested, userspace performs 2 unmaps, one for the area below the
marker, one for the area above and resets the marker to zero. The
mechanics seem pretty simple, we don't need to cover the entire used
address space in a single unmap, we only need to track a dividing line
to split the address space. Anyway, it's been a nagging oversight in
the original design and I'm not opposed to solving it with a flag to
unburden userspace from such things. Thanks,
