The guest will fail in mysterious ways, if you do this (and
io_bus_unregister_dev can be called during runtime): in-kernel device
accesses will fail with unknown behaviour in the guest.

Can't you retry a handful of times with GFP_KERNEL before switching to GFP_ATOMIC? 
(which in case fails the machine is likely to be crashing soon).
