Nit: Why the emphasis on pl*e in the title? Is there anything left
unconverted in the function? IOW how about "switch clone_mapping()
to new page table APIs"?

The latter two need initializers, yes, but why pl3e?

By keeping original style (a single assignment) you'd have slightly
less of a diff, and I think keeping original style where it's not
colliding with any of our rules is generally a good idea. Doing so
won't even make you hit the slightly flawed definition of
map_l3t_from_l4e() at al (missing outer parentheses). I notice you
do so ...

... in both of these cases.

Seeing this recur (from other patches) I wonder whether we wouldn't
better make map_domain_page() accept INVALID_MFN and return NULL in
this case. In cases like the one here it would eliminate the need
for several local variables. Of course the downside of this is that
then we'll have to start checking map_domain_page()'s return value.
A middle ground could be to have

void *alloc_mapped_pagetable(mfn_t *mfn);

allowing to pass in NULL if the MFN is of no interest.

I don't think the writing of NULL into the variables is necessary
here. And if the needed if()-s are of concern, then perhaps we
should consider making unmap_domain_page() finally accept NULL as
input?

The title seems stale. Will fix.

I would say that when the caller requires a new Xen page table
allocation, almost all the time both the mfn and the virt are needed
(on top of my head I cannot think of a case where we pass in NULL, you
almost always need the mfn to write new page table entries), so I think
the benefit of this is just compressing two calls into one, which I am
not quite sure is worth it.

I usually don't have a problem with this because a sane compiler would
definitely remove the unnecessary clearing, so I would use the macro
version as much as possible. I am okay with moving the NULL check into
unmap() itself, but note that this also needs changes on Arm side.
