Linux marks pages that are logically offline via a page flag (map count). Such pages e.g. include pages infated as part of a balloon driver or pages that were not actually onlined when onlining the whole section. While the hypervisor usually allows to read such inflated memory, we basically read and dump data that is completely irrelevant. Also, this might result in quite some overhead in the hypervisor. In addition, we saw some problems under Hyper-V, whereby we can crash the kernel by dumping, when reading memory of a partially onlined memory segment (for memory added by the Hyper-V balloon driver). Therefore, don't read and dump pages that are marked as being logically offline.
