If both start and end are zero, we want to return directly, so the two
more check doesn't hurt.

right.

The checks in kexec_mark_range() will handle the case, it's not
performance-critical path and will make the code less clean.

OK.

How about the following update:

+static int
+kexec_mark_range(unsigned long start, unsigned long end, bool protect)
+{
+       struct page *page;
+       unsigned int nr_pages;
+
+       /* For physical range: [start, end] */
+       if (!start || !end || start > end)
+               return 0;
+
+       page = pfn_to_page(start >> PAGE_SHIFT);
+       nr_pages = (end >> PAGE_SHIFT) - (start >> PAGE_SHIFT) + 1;
+       if (protect)
+               return set_pages_ro(page, nr_pages);
+       else
+               return set_pages_rw(page, nr_pages);
+}
+
+static void kexec_mark_crashkres(bool protect)
+{
+       unsigned long control;
+
+       kexec_mark_range(crashk_low_res.start, crashk_low_res.end, protect);
+
+       /* Don't touch the control code page used in crash_kexec().*/
+       control = PFN_PHYS(page_to_pfn(kexec_crash_image->control_code_page));
+       /* Control code page is located in the 2nd page. */
+       kexec_mark_range(crashk_res.start, control + PAGE_SIZE - 1, protect);
+       control += KEXEC_CONTROL_PAGE_SIZE;
+       kexec_mark_range(control, crashk_res.end, protect);
+}
+
+void arch_kexec_protect_crashkres(void)
+{
+       kexec_mark_crashkres(true);
+}
+
+void arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres(void)
+{
+       kexec_mark_crashkres(false);
+}
