Later if we fail to find a page via fast_isolate_freepages(), we may end up using the migrate_pfn we started the search with, as valid page. This could lead to accessing NULL pointer derefernces like below, due to an invalid mem_section pointer.

This patch fixes the issue by ensuring that the page belongs to a valid PFN when we fallback to using the lower limit of the scan range upon failure in fast_isolate_freepages().
