The proposed change for __add_pages() now seems misleading. Instead of
VM_BUG_ON(), memhp_range_allowed() should be checked directly for a non
linear mapping i.e with 'false' argument and return prematurely in case
that check fails.

Sure. But for now, AFAICS the above replacement should be sufficient.
