The semantics of pfn_valid() is to check presence of the memory map for a
PFN and not whether a PFN is covered by the linear map. The memory map
may be present for NOMAP memory regions, but they won't be mapped in the
linear mapping. Accessing such regions via __va() when they are
memremap()'ed will cause a crash.
On v5.4.y the crash happens on qemu-arm with UEFI [1]:

On kernels v5.10.y and newer the same crash won't reproduce on ARM because
