Those requirements looks pretty suitable for kvm_handle_hva_range(). Guess
we just need to extend the iterator a little bit.

My ideas:

1) Add a lock flag in struct kvm_hva_range to indicate if kvm_lock is required
or not during the iteration. Check the flag with if (!locked && hva_range.need_lock). Then the unlock part can be left un-touched.

2) Add an error code in struct kvm_gfn_range, the handler can set it so that __kvm_handle_hva_range() can check gfn_range.err after ret|= handler(xxx);
If the err is set, bail out.

3) Return the gfn_range.err to the caller. The caller can decide how to convert
it (to boolean or keep it)

4) Set hva_range.need_lock in the existing and the new caller.

How about this?
