Yes, it must be "depends on XEN && HAS_DMA",

Yes, missed that on fail_clear_private error path, will fix

Yes, I was also thinking about storing the allocated frames array from
gnttab_dma_alloc_pages(), but that seemed not to be clear enough as
the caller of the gnttab_dma_alloc_pages will need to store those frames
in some context, so we can pass them on free. But the caller doesn't really
need the frames which might confuse, so I decided to make those allocations
on the fly.
But I can still rework that to store the frames if you insist: please
let me know.

Well, according to [1] it should be :
/* XENMEM_populate_physmap requires a PFN based on Xen
* granularity.
*/
frame_list[i] = page_to_xen_pfn(page);
