The struct pages representing a reserved memory region are initialized
using reserve_bootmem_range() function. This function is called for each
reserved region just before the memory is freed from memblock to the buddy
page allocator.

The struct pages for MEMBLOCK_NOMAP regions are kept with the default
values set by the memory map initialization which makes it necessary to
have a special treatment for such pages in pfn_valid() and
pfn_valid_within().

Just a general question while thinking about it:

Would we right now initialize the memmap of these pages already via 
memmap_init_zone()->memmap_init_range()? (IOW, not marking the 
PageReserved?)
