We'd still tell KVM and E820 maps about two separate regions but guest_flat_to_host() would work-as-is.
It doesn't work in general - if you have a PCI device with a BAR (like a video card framebuffer), then you need allocations for main memory (0+) and pci (0xe000000+). You can't have a contiguous mapping on i386 containing both.
