Way back it was a reasonable assumptions that iomem mappings never
change the pfn range they point at. But this has changed:
- gpu drivers dynamically manage their memory nowadays, invalidating
ptes with unmap_mapping_range when buffers get moved
- contiguous dma allocations have moved from dedicated carvetouts to
s/carvetouts/carveouts/
cma regions. This means if we miss the unmap the pfn might contain
pagecache or anon memory (well anything allocated with GFP_MOVEABLE)
- even /dev/mem now invalidates mappings when the kernel requests that
iomem region when CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM is set, see 3234ac664a87
("/dev/mem: Revoke mappings when a driver claims the region")
Thanks for putting these references into the log, it's very helpful.

The ioremap area is something I'm sorta new to, so a newbie question:
is it possible for the same pte to already be there, ever? If so, we
be stuck in an infinite loop here. I'm sure that's not the case, but
it's not yet obvious to me why it's impossible. Resource reservations
maybe?
