Shall we keep this chunk to the patch where it will be used?  Other
than that, it looks good to me.
I assume you're talking about doing this instead of using @tmp?

	old = *id_to_memslot(__kvm_memslots(kvm, as_id), id);
Yes.

It's obviously possible, but I really like resulting diff for
__kvm_set_memory_region() in "KVM: Terminate memslot walks via used_slots"
when tmp is used.

I normally don't do that, for each patch I'll try to make it
consistent to itself, assuming that follow-up patches can be rejected.
I don't have strong opinion either, please feel free to keep them if
no one disagrees.
