I've tried to follow Kconfig dependencies to see how could we have both
CONTIG_ALLOC=y and CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION=n and I could not find how
was this possible.

We have 

config CONTIG_ALLOC
	def_bool (MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) || CMA

and

config CMA
	bool "Contiguous Memory Allocator"
	depends on MMU
	select MIGRATION
	select MEMORY_ISOLATION

and alloc_contig_range() is hidden behind '#ifdef CONFIG_CONTIG_ALLOC'

In any rate, I think the better fix would be to update Kconfig
dependencies rather than add stubs for these functions.
