The reason I introduced it in this patch series was to keep track of
existing physical to dma mappings so that I could start to dynamically
pin single pages and avoid bouncing on the swiotlb all the time.
See the following patch in the series.

However it turns out that memcpying is faster that going to Xen for the
gpfn->mfn translation all the time.

So I'll drop "swiotlb-xen: instead of bouncing on the swiotlb, pin
single pages" from the series.

However with or without that patch, I would still like to keep this
second tree to keep track of physical to dma mappings created by
gnttab_map_refs: GNTTABOP_map_grant_ref returns the mfn of the granted
page and we can exploit it to avoid bouncing on the swiotlb buffer for
DMA operations on granted pages.

Given the type of workload, I though that it would be the best fit. It
also happens to be the same data structure used by XenServer in their
kernel to achieve something similar.
I don't have hard numbers though.

During the entire life of the guest VM.

Yes, but only for tree insertions, deletions and lookups.
