then accesses before this one have been notified to unpin the area
while accesses afterwards are left unnotified.

in the end the unmap fails but with some side-effect incurred.

I'm not sure whether this intermediate state may lead to any undesired
effect later. Just raise it in case you or Jason already thought about it.
That's a good point. When an access blocks the unmap, there is no
unmap happening so no point in notifying devices for ops->unmap.

And, when the function is re-entered, there could be a duplicated
ops->unmap call for those devices that are already notified once?

So, if we play safe, there can be a standalone xa_for_each to dig
for !access->ops->unmap. And it could be a bit cleaner to add an
iommufd_access_has_internal_use() to be called under those rwsems.
Correct: it has to be under the xa_lock. So, this pre-check needs
to be done in this function.

Thanks
