OK, even though in the future it might happen that the kernel starts
accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage. Right now the
only case in which this happens is on the user AIO code path but it
doesn't mean that the problem is always going to be limited to pages
used for user AIO.

The problem is that all the grant table mappings are done through
multicalls now, and we are not really sure when the multicall is going
to be actually issued.
It might be that we queued all the m2p grant table hypercalls in a
multicall, then m2p_remove_override gets called before the multicall has
actually been issued. In this case handle is going to -1 because it hasn't
been modified yet.
This is the case we are trying to handle here.

Yes. The hypercall might return -1 in the handle in case of errors.

It is already documented in the hypercall interface in

Yes.

Right. However considering that map_op is a parameter passed by the
caller, it makes sense to set it back to a consistent state, no matter
if the caller is just going to free map_op right after.

map->pages[i] cannot be highmap pages anymore, thanks to the previous
patch that changes alloc_xenballooned_pages.
We could even remove the if (!PageHighMem(map->pages[i])) at this
point...

Do you mean moving this code inside find_grant_ptes?
I don't think that can be done because find_grant_ptes is called on a
range of virtual addresses while this is called on an array of struct
pages. It is true that the current implementation of
alloc_xenballooned_pages is going to return a consecutive set of pages
but it might not always be the case.
