I second Paul's desire for the zero bytes case to be rejected up
the call stack.

Any reason not to use ">= ARRAY_SIZE(hvmemul_ctxt->mfn)"

Wouldn't this better be done first thing in the loop? And wouldn't
the value better be INVALID_MFN?

If one page is discard-write and the other isn't, this will end up
being wrong.

final - first + 1 would likely yield better code.

ITYM

    while ( mfn-- > hvmemul_ctxt->mfn )
        put_page(mfn_to_page(mfn_x(*mfn)));

or

    while ( mfn > hvmemul_ctxt->mfn )
        put_page(mfn_to_page(mfn_x(*--mfn)));

Both vunmap() and unmap_domain_page() take pointers to const, so
please use const on the pointer here too.

There upsides and downsides to requiring the caller to pass in the
same values as to map(): You can do more correctness checking
here, but you also risk the caller using the wrong values (perhaps
because of a meanwhile updated local variable). While I don't
outright object to this approach, personally I'd prefer minimal
inputs here, and the code deriving everything from hvmemul_ctxt.

Pointless "else".

Considering the 2nd linear -> guest-phys translation done here, did
you consider having hvmemul_map_linear_addr() obtain and provide
the GFNs?

Mind being precise in the comment, saying "PAGE_SIZE+1"?
