While playing with gigantic hugepages and memory_hotplug, I triggered the following #PF when "cat memoryX/removable":

The reason is we do not pass the Head to page_hstate(), and so, the call to compound_order() in page_hstate() returns 0, so we end up checking all hstates's size to match PAGE_SIZE.
Obviously, we do not find any hstate matching that size, and we return NULL. Then, we dereference that NULL pointer in hugepage_migration_supported() and we got the #PF from above.
Fix that by getting the head page before calling page_hstate().
Also, since gigantic pages span several pageblocks, re-adjust the logic for skipping pages. While are it, we can also get rid of the round_up().
