I think we discussed this but forgot the details. If
set_memory_decrypted() failed, I guess it's not safe to free the page
back as we don't know the state it is in. It might be worth adding a
comment if you respin for other reasons.

Since its_alloc_pages_node() can return NULL, we should check for this
as page_address() would not be valid.

Otherwise the patch looks fine:
