Subject: [PATCH v2 6/6] vfio/type1: Use mapping page mask for pfnmaps

vfio-pci supports huge_fault for PCI MMIO BARs and will insert pud and
pmd mappings for well aligned mappings.  follow_pfnmap_start() walks the
page table and therefore knows the page mask of the level where the
address is found and returns this through follow_pfnmap_args.pgmask.
Subsequent pfns from this address until the end of the mapping page are
necessarily consecutive.  Use this information to retrieve a range of
pfnmap pfns in a single pass.

With optimal mappings and alignment on systems with 1GB pud and 4KB
page size, this reduces iterations for DMA mapping PCI BARs by a
factor of 256K.  In real world testing, the overhead of iterating
pfns for a VM DMA mapping a 32GB PCI BAR is reduced from ~1s to
sub-millisecond overhead.
