Subject: [PATCH 4.19 65/93] mm/memory-failure.c: dont access uninitialized memmaps in memory_failure()

From: David Hildenbrand <david@...hat.com>

commit 96c804a6ae8c59a9092b3d5dd581198472063184 upstream.

We should check for pfn_to_online_page() to not access uninitialized
memmaps.  Reshuffle the code so we don't have to duplicate the error
message.
