"All page allocations" is too broad; As before, this is only about 
pagetable allocations, or I guess for the full nuance, allocations of 
pagetables and other per-iommu_domain configuration structures which are 
reasonable to report as "pagetables" to userspace.

All 3 invocations of this only use the returned struct page to trivially 
derive page_address(), so we really don't need it; just clean up these 
callsites a bit more.

Same for the single invocation of this one.

There are no users of this at all.

Beyond one more trivial Intel cleanup for __iommu_alloc_pages(), these 3 
are then only used by tegra-smmu, so honestly I'd be inclined to just 
open-code there page_address()/virt_to_page() conversions as appropriate 
there (once again I think the whole thing could in fact be refactored to 
not use struct pages at all because all it's ever ultimately doing with 
them is page_address(), but that would be a bigger job so definitely 
out-of-scope for this series).

As a general point I'd prefer to fold these checks into the accounting 
function itself rather than repeat them all over.

TBH I'm not entirely convinced that saving 4 characters per invocation 
times 11 invocations makes this wrapper worthwhile :/

Nit: I'd be inclined to call this iommu_put_pages_list for consistency.

I realise now you've also missed the common freelist freeing sites in 
iommu-dma.
