By the time you get here, this should have already crashed at this
code that patch 13 adds:

No, I have David's patches which fix all of this, I'm planning to post them
soon.

My question is rather what is the whole point of calling
memory_region_init_iommu with size==UINT64_MAX?

mem_add() tries to do register_subpage() when size is not aligned
(UINT64_MAX is not) and fails.

So if we want to init memory region with the size as big as possible on
64bit systems, we either have to replace all 64bit sizes with 64bit end
addresses (and then use 0-ffffffffffffffff) or support int128 sizes
everywhere (even if it is just hi=1, lo=0) or stop initializing memory
regions with sizes way bigger than we really need in next 5 years.

Am I missing a bigger picture?

Then you have to change this code to use int128 throughout.

UINT64_MAX represent a 2^64-byte region, not 2^64-1.  mem_add does not
see an unaligned size.

The previous version of the patches limited the address space to 62
bits, but s390 guys preferred to have 2^64.

so it seems like a bug in your VFIO patches.
