Strictly speaking: Yes. But pdx compression skips the bottom MAX_ORDER
bits, so ...

... this is an expensive identity transformation. Could I talk you into
adding

    ASSERT(start == pfn_to_pdx(start));

instead (or the corresponding BUG_ON() if you'd prefer that, albeit then
the expensive identity transformation will still be there even in release
builds; not that it matters all that much right here, but still)?

In any event, with no real bug fixed (unless I'm overlooking something),
I would suggest to drop the Fixes: tag.
