Thank you for running additional tests.

Hmm..I don't understand the PAGE_SHIFT part. Do you mind clarifying?

And GVT code initiated an unpin request from gvt_unpin_guest_pag()
that is currently unpinning one page at a time on a contiguous IOVA
range, prior to this series. After this series, it leaves the per-
page routine to the internal loop of vfio_iommu_type1_unpin_pages(),
which is supposed to do the same.

So, either resulted from the npage input being wrong or some other
factor weighed in that invoked a vfio_remove_dma on those iovas?

Thanks
Nic
