Why the forced restart here?  If nothing needs pre-empting, surely it is
better to continue?

Or is this about equality on the pcidevs_lock ?

I think this change from bool_t to s8 needs a comment explaining that -1
indicates "the iommu mappings are pending creation"

Is there any particular reason that -ERESTART is used when -EAGAIN is
the prevailing style for hypercall continuations?
