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 ret;

   	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;
          }
