VFIO on sPAPR already implements guest memory pre-registration when the entire guest RAM gets pinned. This can be used to translate the physical address of a guest page containing the TCE list from H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT. This makes use of the pre-registrered memory API to access TCE list pages in order to avoid unnecessary locking on the KVM memory reverse map as we know that all of guest memory is pinned and we have a flat array mapping GPA to HPA which makes it simpler and quicker to index into that array (even with looking up the kernel page tables in vmalloc_to_phys) than it is to find the memslot, lock the rmap entry, look up the user page tables, and unlock the rmap entry. Note that the rmap pointer is initialized to NULL where declared (not in this patch). If a requested chunk of memory has not been preregistered, this will fall back to non-preregistered case and lock rmap.
