This looks a bit fishy to me. I am not familiar with the code much but
at least __offline_pages zone = page_zone(pfn_to_page(start_pfn)) so it
would blow up before we got here. Same applies to the other caller
alloc_contig_range. So either both need a fix and then
start_isolate_page_range doesn't need more checks or this is all
unnecessary.

Please do not make this code more obfuscated than it is already...
