Without vIOMMU, VFIO's mapping is configured with the same as KVM's
memslots, i.e. with the same gfn==>HVA mapping

I think just check the entrie 2MiB GFN range are all within KVM memslot is
enough.
If for some reason, KVM maps a 2MiB range in 4K sizes, KVMGT can still map
it in IOMMU size in 2MiB size as long as the PFNs are continous and the
whole range is all exposed to guest.
Actually normal device passthrough with VFIO-PCI also maps GFNs in a
similar way, i.e. maps a guest visible range in as large size as
possible as long as the PFN is continous.

Will iTLB multi-hit affect DMA?
AFAIK, IOMMU mappings currently never sets exec bit (and I'm told this bit is
under discussion to be removed).
