ppc64le failed when using large physical memory. I found problems in my two
commits in the past.

In commit e072d16f8920 ("vfio: fix expanding DMA area in ppc64le"), I added
a sanity check using a mapped address to resolve an issue around expanding
IOMMU window, but this was not enough, since memory allocation can return
memory anywhere dependent on memory fragmentation. DPDK may still skip DMA
mapping and attempts to unmap non-mapped DMA during expanding IOMMU window.
As a result, SPDK apps using large physical memory frequently failed to
proceed the communication with NVMe and/or went into an infinite loop.

The root cause of the bug was in a gap between memory segments managed by
DPDK and firmware-level DMA mapping. DPDK's memory segments don't contain
the state of DMA mapping, and so, the memesg_walk cannot determine if an
iterated memory segment is mapped or not. This resulted in incorrect DMA
maps and unmaps.

At this time, I added the code to avoid iterating non-mapped memory
segments during DMA mapping. The memseg_walk iterates over memory segments
marked as "used", and so, the code sets memory segments that will be
mapped or unmapped as "free" transiently.

The commit db90b4969e2e ("vfio: retry creating sPAPR DMA window") allows
retring different page levels and sizes to create DMA window. However, this
allows page sizes different from hugepage sizes. This inconsistency caused
failures at the time of DMA mapping after the window creation. This patch
fixes to retry only different page levels.

Fixes: e072d16f8920 ("vfio: fix expanding DMA area in ppc64le")
Fixes: db90b4969e2e ("vfio: retry creating sPAPR DMA window")
