Aren't kernel mappings of highmem pages always in the fixmap? Therefore
can we maybe catch this at that layer in the pvops infrastructure? That
would avoid the impact on all set_pte calls and (perhaps) provide more
context regarding the mapping. For example that might mean we could keep
a bitmap (or other data structure as appropriate) mapping the fixmap IDX
(which is a smallish integer, far more manageable than {P,M}FN) into
granted-ness in order to speed up the check for this case. Avoiding the
m2p_override lookup in the common case seems like something which would
be worth putting some effort into.

GRANT_FRAME_BIT, despite being declared like
{FOREIGN,IDENTITY}_FRAME_BIT is not actually used in the upper bits of
an MFN but rather is used as a flag in page->private.

If it's not to be used in an MFN in the style of the others then there
is no need for it to follow that pattern. The declaration of GRANT_FRAME
is unused and confusing since the bit isn't even used that way. If
page->private is to be used as a bitfield then it needs to be clear
which bits are used in that context vs. the MFN high bits, i.e. it
should be declared somewhere else with an appropriate comment.

More importantly though are we sure that page->private is always
available for use by this code? The private field is for the use of the
owner of the page. In the case where the page is a granted page then we
are (ultimately) the owner, but in the case where the page isn't a
granted page at all the owner could be another subsystem altogether and
there could be false positives if that bit happens to be set.
