How about this?:

#ifndef CONFIG_SPARSEMEM
int pfn_valid(unsigned long pfn)
{
	struct meminfo *mi = &meminfo;
	unsigned int left = 0, right = mi->nr_banks;

	while (left <= right) {
		unsigned int mid = (right - left) / 2;
		struct membank *bank = &mi->bank[mid];

		if (pfn < bank_pfn_start(bank))
			right = mid;
		else if (pfn >= bank_pfn_end(bank))
			left = mid + 1;
		else
			return 1;
	}
	return 0;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(pfn_valid);
#endif
