I rebased to next-20191016. And yes, we will move pfn_to_online_page()
into soft offline code. It seems that we can also move pfn_valid(),
but is simply moving like below good enough for you?

-int soft_offline_page(struct page *page, int flags)
+int soft_offline_page(unsigned long pfn, int flags)
{
int ret;
- unsigned long pfn = page_to_pfn(page);
+ struct page *page;

+ if (!pfn_valid(pfn))
+ return -ENXIO;

+ page = pfn_to_page(pfn);
if (is_zone_device_page(page)) {
pr_debug_ratelimited("soft_offline: %#lx page is device page\n",
pfn);

Or we might have an option to do as memory_failure() does like below:

int memory_failure(unsigned long pfn, int flags)
{
....
p = pfn_to_online_page(pfn);
if (!p) {
if (pfn_valid(pfn)) {
pgmap = get_dev_pagemap(pfn, NULL);
if (pgmap)
return memory_failure_dev_pagemap(pfn, flags,
pgmap);
}
pr_err("Memory failure: %#lx: memory outside kernel control\n",
pfn);
return -ENXIO;
}

Thanks,
