Thanks for dredging this back up!

Is this correct on 32-bit?  It would limit /dev/mem to memory below 896MB.

Nit: please add units to things like "count".  len_bytes would be nice
for this kind of thing, especially since it's passed *with* a pfn it
would be easy to think it is a count in pages.

Is this -EOVERFLOW correct?  It is called like this:

So I think we need to return true/false:0/1.  -EOVERFLOW would be true,
and that if() would pass.

Maybe I'm dumb, but it took me a minute to figure out what you were
trying to do with the: "(pfn >> BITS_PER_LONG - PAGE_SHIFT)".  In any
case, I think it is wrong on 32-bit.

On 32-bit, BITS_PER_LONG=32, and PAGE_SIZE=12, and a paddr=0x100000000
or pfn=0x100000 (4GB) is perfectly valid with PAE enabled.  But, this
code pfn>>(32-12) would result in 0x1 and return -EOVERFLOW.

I think something like this would be easier to read and actually work on
32-bit:

static inline int arch_pfn_possible(unsigned long pfn)
{
 	unsigned long max_arch_pfn = 1UL << (boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits -
PAGE_SHIFT);
	return pfn < max_arch_pfn;
}
