Please define this in the block where it will be used.

The line above can be dropped.

Did you mean "="?

Assuming you did, this could be

        size_highmem = size + preallocate_image_highmem(alloc - size);
        if (size_highmem < alloc) {

> +               if (size_highmem < (alloc - size)) {

The inner parens were not necessary.

But overall it would be better to avoid bailing out.
