drivers/base/memory: fix trying offlining memory blocks with memory holes on aarch64

offline_pages() properly checks for memory holes and bails out.
However, we do a page_zone(pfn_to_page(start_pfn)) before calling
offline_pages() when offlining a memory block.

We should not unconditionally call page_zone(pfn_to_page(start_pfn)) on
aarch64 in offlining code, otherwise we can trigger a BUG when hitting a
memory hole:

If nr_vmemmap_pages is set, we know that we are dealing with hotplugged
memory that doesn't have any holes. So call
page_zone(pfn_to_page(start_pfn)) only when really necessary -- when
nr_vmemmap_pages is set and we actually adjust the present pages.
