Should it depend on anything from DMA? CONFIG_HAS_DMA for example?

Do you need to xenmem_reservation_increase()?

Any way you can do it without allocating memory? One possibility is to
keep allocated frames from gnttab_dma_alloc_pages(). (Not sure I like
that either but it's the only thing I can think of).

Not xen_page_to_gfn()?

Single-line comment

This can be made into single line comment as well. However, I am not
sure this comment as well as those below are necessary. Fields names are
self-describing IMO.
