In addition to checking whether a page is reserved before allocating
it to highmem, verify that it is valid memory.
Otherwise the kernel Oopses as below:

[ 0.000000] Kernel attempted to read user page (7df58) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)

Hello and thank you for care about this issue!
I have already tested this change, it fixes crash, so add my:
Tested-by: Pali Rohár <pali@kernel.org>
Anyway, should there be some Fixes: tag? E.g.
Fixes: b0e0d68b1c52 ("powerpc/32: Allow fragmented physical memory")
(which enabled support for fragmented memory and therefore kernel
started crashing?)
