Patch itself is fine, thanks!
Yet something to improve in the log:

DMA API is fine: we end up with:
void virtqueue_unmap_page_attrs(const struct virtqueue *_vq,
dma_addr_t map_handle,
size_t size, enum dma_data_direction dir,
unsigned long attrs)
{
const struct vring_virtqueue *vq = to_vvq(_vq);
struct virtio_device *vdev = _vq->vdev;
if (vdev->map)
vdev->map->unmap_page(vq->map,
map_handle, size, dir, attrs);
else
dma_unmap_page_attrs(vring_dma_dev(vq), map_handle,
size, dir, attrs);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(virtqueue_unmap_page_attrs);
So what matters is the device and it's the same for all vqs.
A better way to put it:
While harmless (both vqs share the same device for DMA) it is cleaner
to map and unmap using the same vq.

And I'd drop the fixes tag.
