Make xen_xlate_map_ballooned_pages work with 64K pages. In that case
Kernel pages are 64K in size but Xen pages remain 4K in size. Xen pfns
refer to 4K pages.

Would it be possible to re-use xen_for_each_gfn? This will avoid
open-coding the loop to break down the Linux page.
I don't think so. Using xen_acpi_guest_init will require factoring
"pfns[i] = pfn_to_gfn(xen_pfn++)" to a function with parameter pfns[i].
How can we pass pfns[i]?

By using the variable data. Something along those lines:

struct map_balloon_pages
{
xen_pfn_t *pfns;
unsigned int idx;
};

static void setup_balloon_gfn(unsigned long gfn, void *data)
{
struct map_balloon_pages *info = data;


data->pfns[data->idx] = gfn;
data->idx++;
}

And then in xen_xlate_map_ballooned_pages

xen_for_each_gfn(pages, nr_grant_frames, setup_balloon_gfn, &data);
