Ah, ok I see. "page.h" is only included in no-mmu arches. Which explains
why riscv re-implements that macro. Couple follow up questions then:

* Did you test the memory-with-hole scenario without the sparsemem
patches? It seems pfn_valid() will be wrong regardless of sparse/flat mem.

* Any chance we can just use the generic pfn_valid() function in all
cases not just sparsemem? Can you test that?

Thanks,
