+ * pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap
+ * associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always
+ * have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole.
+ * In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the
+ * entire section.
+ *
+ * However, an ARM, and maybe other embedded architectures in the future
+ * free memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is
+ * never used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid()
+ * returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional
+ * check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure
+ * the zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers
+ * of the full memmap are extremely rare.
