About the first patch,

I didn't notice any regression on the i915
side though. Is it safe to keep it? Otherwise we are probably better
off reverting everything.

I'm just going to drop both of those for now:

27dff0f58bde ("x86/mm: Nuke PAGE_KERNEL_IO")
6b2a2138cf36 ("drm/i915/gem: Stop using PAGE_KERNEL_IO")

If you work out a fix, please integrate the patch from Joerg and resubmit.

yeah, that seems the best approach here.

thanks
