Yes. I mentioned in the commit log. And it's in response to Jason's
remark: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20220707192210.GC1705032@nvidia.com/

Btw, user_pfn is removed in one of the following patches anyway.

For pointers, same reason here.

For npage, it's checked in its caller vfio_unpin_pages -- mentioned
in the commit log too. The VFIO core is the only caller and it is
unlikely to change. On the other hand, the plan is to replace this
vfio_iommu_type1_unpin_pages with IOMMUFD implementation.
