Yes, that change was not well done. Sorry for that. I'm sure it doesnt
crash if set_gpfn_from_mfn() is called from free_domheap_pages().

Looking at free_heap_pages(), now the page owner is cleared at the
beginning of the loop. But later in the loop it is checked wether a TLB
flush is required. So the set_gpfn_from_mfn() should be at least moved
past this check. Even if that doesnt fix the crash you are seening.

I will see if I can come up with a better version.
