The "set" sounds weird. I'd remove that comment completely.

It's usually best if you undo stuff in the complete opposite order. For 
example at this point, the memmap might already have been poisoned, yet 
pfn_to_online_page() would return true. You should do that first.

Apart from that, nothing jumped at me :)
