Actually, yes. I've tried to solve it using:
memory_region_get_ram_ptr -> It's hard to get this pointer to work
without messing a lot with IOVATree.
memory_region_find -> I'm totally unable to make it return sections
that make sense
flatview_for_each_range -> It does not return the same
MemoryRegionsection as the listener, not sure why.

The only advance I have is that memory_region_from_host is able to
tell if the vaddr is from the guest or not.

So I'm convinced there must be a way to do it with the memory
subsystem, but I think the best way to do it ATM is to store a
parallel tree with GPA-> SVQ IOVA translations. At removal time, if we
find the entry in this new tree, we can directly remove it by GPA. If
not, assume it is a host-only address like SVQ vrings, and remove by
iterating on vaddr as we do now. It is guaranteed the guest does not
translate to that vaddr and that that vaddr is unique in the tree
anyway.

Does it sound reasonable? Jonah, would you be interested in moving this forward?

Thanks!
