This looks good to me:

I wonder if this wouldn't be even better if we did:

        struct page *start_page = pfn_to_page(start_pfn);

        for (pfn = start_pfn; pfn <= end_pfn; pfn++) {
                struct page *page = start_page + pfn - start_pfn;

                if (!pfn_valid_within(pfn))
                        continue;

... then we can drop the increment of pfn here

... and change this to pfn += (1 << order) - 1;

Do you have any numbers to quantify the benefit of this change?
