Can you print these ranges the same way as the others?  I think
"invalid range" might be closer to what you mean than "wrong range." 

I'm a little dubious about these "(start == end)" and "(start > end)"
checks anyway.  Who are the callers of these functions?  If "start"
and "end" are coming from an external source, e.g., some firmware
interface like an e820 table, the message doesn't give enough of a
clue about where the problem is.

If "start" and "end" are internal things, I'd argue that the checks
are just covering up Linux bugs, and it'd be better to fix those
bugs and remove the checks.
