To optimize for fewer page fault handlings, we can pre-map more pages
than requested at once.

Note that IOPF_PREMAP_LEN is just an arbitrary value for now, which we
could try further tuning.

I'd prefer that the series introduced full end-to-end functionality
before trying to improve performance.  The pre-map value seems
arbitrary here and as noted in the previous patch, the IOMMU API does
not guarantee unmaps of ranges smaller than the original mapping.  This
would need to map with single page granularity in order to guarantee
page granularity at the mmu notifier when the IOMMU supports
superpages.  Thanks,

Alex
