A couple nits:
I would simplify this a little, initialize all fields at the beginning
arg->status_change_nid_normal = -1;
arg->status_change_nid_high = -1;
arg->status_change_nid = -1;
And remove all the elses, including ifdef else.
And remove:
zt = ZONE_HIGHMEM;
zt = ZONE_MOVABLE;
Use macros directly, lines are are still going to be under 80 chars.
Otherwise looks good.
