It would be very helpful if people advocating for this interface
reviewed it as well.

Is there a reason to have XEN_GRANT_DMA_ALLOC without XEN_GNTDEV_DMABUF?

Why this comment style?

Please define the full structure (at least what you have in the next
patch) here.

This code belongs in gntdev-dmabuf.c.
