The dma_pte_free_pagetable() clears a batch of PTEs. So checking current PTE is
insufficient. How about removing this check and always performing cache
invalidation?


Um...the PTE here may be present( e.g. 4K mapping --> superpage mapping ) orNOT-present ( e.g. create a totally new superpage mapping ), but we only need to call free_pagetable and flush_iotlb in the former case, right ?

But this code covers multiple PTEs and perhaps crosses the page
boundary.

How about moving this code into a separated function and check PTE
presence there. A sample code could look like below: [compiled but not
tested!]
