A summary of the semantic differeces between v1 and v2 would be nice.
At this point it's not really clear to me if there's a case for
creating v2, or if this could just be done by adding (optional)
functionality to v1.

So, from things you said at other points, I thought the idea was that
this registration stuff could also be used on non-Power IOMMUs. Did I
misunderstand, or is that a possibility for the future?

So requiring that registered regions get unregistered with exactly the
same addr/length is reasonable. I'm a bit less convinced that
disallowing overlaps is a good idea. What if two libraries in the
same process are trying to use VFIO - they may not know if the regions
they try to register are overlapping.

AFAICT, this is the only call to tce_register_pages(), so why not put
the mutex into the function.
