I have wondered this before, and Sashiko mentions it now: Would it make
sense to also FOLL_LONGTERM here?
I recognize that the old ioctl code that you are resurrecting here did
not use FOLL_LONGTERM, but I can't think of a reason why.
The mapping may indeed be held long-term (life of the guest or at least
the associated adapter in the guest), and it's effectively under
userspace control, waiting for a corresponding unmap ioctl or for the
guest to go away or enter pv mode.
Can you please test?

Drop this kfree(), you already do this when you goto out

Sashiko is concerned about put_page() potentially sleeping under
PREEMPT_RT; drilling down to functions like free_one_page() indeed I see
regular spinlocks employed.
RT aside, it might be worth doing this anyway to reduce the critical
section you are holding this lock over, like so:
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&adapter->maps_lock, flags);
if (adapter->nr_maps < MAX_S390_ADAPTER_MAPS) {
list_add_tail(&map->list, &adapter->maps);
adapter->nr_maps++;
ret = 0;
} else {
ret = -EINVAL;
}
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&adapter->maps_lock, flags);
if (ret)
put_page(map->page);

Move the kfree() outside of the raw spinlock and instead call it...

Moving put_page/kfree out of the spinlock is a bit more work here.
Handle this the same way you did in kvm_s390_unmap_all_adapters_pv()?
Actually wait -- besides the dirty page logic (which should be fine to
do here too) this is the same code as kvm_s390_unmap_all_adapters_pv().
Can you make the code in kvm_s390_unmap_all_adapters_pv() a single
routine with a different name (e.g. kvm_s390_unmap_all_adapters()?) that
is called both from here as well as from kvm_s390_handle_pv()?
