You said the sgl is not set here, why doesn't this crash? It is
certainly wrong to call this function without a SGL.

I would expect this to call ib_umem_dmabuf_unmap_pages() ?

Who calls it on the dereg path?

This looks quite strange to me, it calls ib_umem_dmabuf_unmap_pages()
only from the invalidate callback?

I feel uneasy how this seems to assume everything works sanely, we can
have parallel page faults so pagefault_dmabuf_mr() can be called
multiple times after an invalidation, and it doesn't protect itself
against calling ib_umem_dmabuf_map_pages() twice.

Perhaps the umem code should keep track of the current map state and
exit if there is already a sgl. NULL or not NULL sgl would do and
seems quite reasonable.

But this doesn't care about user_va or bcnt it just triggers the whole
thing to be remapped, so why calculate it?
