As long as we are extending the interface,
is there some way we could cut down the number of system calls needed
here?

Well not just hints - in fact updates do not take place
until _END.

How about:

/* VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_BEGIN and VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_END allow modifying
 * multiple mappings in one go: beginning with
 * VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_BEGIN, followed by any number of
   VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE messages, and ending with VHOST_IOTLB_BATCH_END.
 */

how about:

when one of these two values is used as the message type, the
rest of the fields in the message are ignored.
