The current code has implicit assumption that nchunks != 0 infers 
last_pfn != 0. However, this assumption could break subject to code 
structure changes for eg. failure may occur after the increment of 
nchunks and before the for loop. I feel it'd be the best to capture this 
assumption with something explicit.
