Ya, I wasn't entirely sure what to do here, but including seems to not
be without precedent, e.g. commit 92bbef67d459 ("mm: make
alloc_contig_range work at pageblock granularity"), and likewise just
wanted to give credit where I thought it was due. Though, I suppose
folks who catch bugs in the review process aren't ack'd similarly, so
perhaps it does make sense to remove this.

Makes sense to me. Done.

I opted for safety here since I didn't know if pmd_present() always
implied !pmd_none() on all archs, but given mm_find_pmd() elides the
check, perhaps it's safe to do so here. Thanks for the suggestion.
