The above already does this for each page within the block, but it's 
guarded by CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. I guess that's not the 
case of your system, right?

I guess your added check should go above this, though. Also what about 
employing pageblock_pfn_to_page() here and in all other applicable 
places, so it's unified and optimized by zone->contiguous?
