You're correct, sorry, I missed removing the cast, it's not needed.
I've removed the __pa_symbol define as I'm switching to the __pa
implementation you suggested below.

I've moved to this second implementation.  I don't think I understand
the ramifications enough to add the virt_to_pfn call for arm.

I've changed one thing.  __nosave_end is pointing at the first byte
not included in the nosave region.  I subtracted one from it so that
we make sure we're referring to the last pfn, and left the pfn
comparison as you'd suggested.

int pfn_is_nosave(unsigned long pfn)
{
        unsigned long nosave_begin_pfn = __phys_to_pfn(__pa(&__nosave_begin));
        unsigned long nosave_end_pfn = __phys_to_pfn(__pa(&__nosave_end - 1));

        return (pfn >= nosave_begin_pfn) && (pfn <= nosave_end_pfn);
}

I'll test this and post it if everyone's ok with it.

Thanks for your review and comments Stephen!
