You should look at v3 (which I confusingly titled as v2, sry):

Correct, in v3 you could use DMA_BUF_MAP_INCOHERENT for this case (or
we could add additional enum values.. DMA_BUF_MAP_IDK or whatever)

re: dgpu, I guess those will be pass-thru so not so relevant for this issue

This doesn't help, because the VMM is in userspace.. it is the VMM
which needs this information.

IMHO we can consider this (at least in case of v3) as a virtio
special, at least in the sense that it is opt-in for the exporting
driver, and exporting drivers are free to not play along
