Would you have a problem if we added a new function in page_ext
"page_ext_from_phys()" as Jason suggested?

Given the hidden complexity that David just pointed out I think this
is essential to encapsulate it in a function.

The function must be able to accept any phys_addr_t and safely returns
NULL if page_ext cannot be used for some reason.

Right. I think pfn_to_online_page() is the appropriate check.

@Mostafa, I saw you already sent a v7, is the pfn_to_online_page() stuff handled in there?
