'Idle page tracking' users can pass random pfn that might be mapped to an
offline page.  To avoid accessing such pages, this commit modifies the
'page_idle_get_page()' to use 'pfn_to_online_page()' instead of
'pfn_valid()' and 'pfn_to_page()' combination, so that the pfn mapped to
an offline page can be skipped.
