A couple of comments on particular instances...

Having a 'bfn' variable here makes some sense, because otherwise, if mfn
ever gets the mfn_t type, you'll have
iommu_unmap_page(... _bfn(mfn_x(mfn)+i));
being able to use bfn_add() is much cleaner. I don't think the
intermediate 'frame' variable in the case, really adds anything.

Here's an example where I think having an extra variable is somewhat
dangerous. Before this change, it's obvious that you have a 1:1
mapping; now, looking just at this line, it's not obvious that bfn ==
mfn. Worse, there's a risk that there will be some sort of bug
introduced which changes bfn, such that bfn != mfn anymore.
If you have to use an intermediate variable here, this should be
iommu_map_page(..., _bfn(frame), _mfn(frame), ...);
But I really think
iommu_map_page(..., _bfn(mfn_x(mfn)), mfn, ...);
makes the most sense here.
