Check patch is complaining about this.

WARNING: function definition argument 'unsigned long' should also have an identifier name

Should also bring with it, the comment regarding upper bits in
the pfn from arm64 pfn_valid().

 ^^^^^ trailing spaces here.

ERROR: trailing whitespace

Is the EXPORT_SYMBOL() required to build drivers which will use
pfn_is_map_memory() but currently use pfn_valid() ?
