I think this just wants a page_unmapped or similar helper instead of
needing the xpfo_page_is_unmapped check.  We actually have quite
a few similar construct in the arch dma mapping code for architectures
that require cache flushing.

And at least for swiotlb there is no need to export this helper,
as it is always built in.
