This is nice.

I am working with an adjacent task, which is to make virt_to_pfn() and
pfn_to_virt() into static inlines. I might need to rebase my work on top
of this but it should be doable, I am currently stressing the buildbots
with this with the idea to propose it to Arnd once v6.4-rc1 is out:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-integrator.git/log/?h=b4/virt-to-pfn-v6-4-rc1

Yours,
