7d61bfe8fd mm/vmalloc: get rid of dirty bitmap inside vmap_block structure
In original implementation of vm_map_ram made by Nick Piggin there were
two bitmaps: alloc_map and dirty_map.  None of them were used as supposed
to be: finding a suitable free hole for next allocation in block.
vm_map_ram allocates space sequentially in block and on free call marks
pages as dirty, so freed space can't be reused anymore.

Actually it would be very interesting to know the real meaning of those
bitmaps, maybe implementation was incomplete, etc.

But long time ago Zhang Yanfei removed alloc_map by these two commits:

  mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_alloc
     3fcd76e802
  mm/vmalloc.c: remove alloc_map from vmap_block
     b8e748b6c3

In this patch I replaced dirty_map with two range variables: dirty min and
max.  These variables store minimum and maximum position of dirty space in
a block, since we need only to know the dirty range, not exact position of
dirty pages.

Why it was made?  Several reasons: at first glance it seems that
vm_map_ram allocator concerns about fragmentation thus it uses bitmaps for
finding free hole, but it is not true.  To avoid complexity seems it is
better to use something simple, like min or max range values.  Secondly,
code also becomes simpler, without iteration over bitmap, just comparing
values in min and max macros.  Thirdly, bitmap occupies up to 1024 bits
(4MB is a max size of a block).  Here I replaced the whole bitmap with two
longs.

Finally vm_unmap_aliases should be slightly faster and the whole
vmap_block structure occupies less memory.

cf725ce274 mm/vmalloc: occupy newly allocated vmap block just after allocation
Previous implementation allocates new vmap block and repeats search of a
free block from the very beginning, iterating over the CPU free list.

Why it can be better??

1. Allocation can happen on one CPU, but search can be done on another CPU.
   In worst case we preallocate amount of vmap blocks which is equal to
   CPU number on the system.

2. In previous patch I added newly allocated block to the tail of free list
   to avoid soon exhaustion of virtual space and give a chance to occupy
   blocks which were allocated long time ago.  Thus to find newly allocated
   block all the search sequence should be repeated, seems it is not efficient.

In this patch newly allocated block is occupied right away, address of
virtual space is returned to the caller, so there is no any need to repeat
the search sequence, allocation job is done.

68ac546f26 mm/vmalloc: fix possible exhaustion of vmalloc space caused by vm_map_ram allocator
Recently I came across high fragmentation of vm_map_ram allocator:
vmap_block has free space, but still new blocks continue to appear.
Further investigation showed that certain mapping/unmapping sequences
can exhaust vmalloc space.  On small 32bit systems that's not a big
problem, cause purging will be called soon on a first allocation failure
(alloc_vmap_area), but on 64bit machines, e.g.  x86_64 has 45 bits of
vmalloc space, that can be a disaster.

1) I came up with a simple allocation sequence, which exhausts virtual
   space very quickly:

  while (iters) {

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
  }

The idea behind is simple:

 1. We have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.

 2. Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller chunks, i.e.
    8 pages. At the end small hole should remain to keep block in free list,
    but do not let big chunk to occupy remaining space.

 3. Goto 1 - allocation request of 16 pages can't be completed (only 8 slots
    are left free in the block in the #2 step), new block will be allocated,
    all further requests will lay into newly allocated block.

To have some measurement numbers for all further tests I setup ftrace and
enabled 4 basic calls in a function profile:

        echo vm_map_ram              > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo alloc_vmap_area        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo vm_unmap_ram           >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo free_vmap_block        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;

So for this scenario I got these results:

BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list)
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0
  Function                               Hit    Time            Avg             s^2

SUMMARY:

The most interesting numbers in those tables are numbers of block
allocations and deallocations: alloc_vmap_area and free_vmap_block
calls, which show that before the change blocks were not freed, and
virtual space and physical memory (vmap_block structure allocations,
etc) were consumed.

Average time which were spent in vm_map_ram/vm_unmap_ram became slightly
better.  That can be explained with a reasonable amount of blocks in a
free list, which we need to iterate to find a suitable free block.

2) Another scenario is a random allocation:

  while (iters) {

                /* Randomly take number from a range [1..32/64] */
                nr = rand(1, VMAP_MAX_ALLOC);
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, nr, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, nr);
  }

I chose mersenne twister PRNG to generate persistent random state to
guarantee that both runs have the same random sequence.  For each
vm_map_ram call random number from [1..32/64] was taken to represent
amount of pages which I do map.

I did 10'000 vm_map_ram calls and got these two tables:

BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list)

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0
  Function                               Hit    Time            Avg             s^2

  alloc_vmap_area                        414    2201.650 us     5.317 us        5.591 us
  free_vmap_block                        412    574.421 us      1.394 us        15.138 us

SUMMARY:

'BEFORE' table shows, that 420 blocks were allocated and only 37 were
freed.  Remained 383 blocks are still in a free list, consuming virtual
space and physical memory.

'AFTER' table shows, that 414 blocks were allocated and 412 were really
freed.  2 blocks remained in a free list.

So fragmentation was dramatically reduced.  Why? Because when we put
newly allocated block to the head, all further requests will occupy new
block, regardless remained space in other blocks.  In this scenario all
requests come randomly.  Eventually remained free space will be less
than requested size, free list will be iterated and it is possible that
nothing will be found there - finally new block will be created.  So
exhaustion in random scenario happens for the maximum possible
allocation size: 32 pages for 32-bit system and 64 pages for 64-bit
system.

Also average cost of vm_map_ram was reduced from 1.017 us to 0.774 us.
Again this can be explained by iteration through smaller list of free
blocks.

3) Next simple scenario is a sequential allocation, when the allocation
   order is increased for each block.  This scenario forces allocator to
   reach maximum amount of partially free blocks in a free list:

  while (iters) {

                /* Populate free list with blocks with remaining space */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        nr = VMAP_BBMAP_BITS / (1 << order);

                        /* Leave a hole */
                        nr -= 1;

                        for (i = 0; i < nr; i++) {
                                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }

                /* Completely occupy blocks from a free list */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }
  }

SUMMARY:

No surprises here, almost all numbers are the same.

Fixing this fragmentation problem I also did some improvements in a
allocation logic of a new vmap block: occupy block immediately and get
rid of extra search in a free list.

Also I replaced dirty bitmap with min/max dirty range values to make the
logic simpler and slightly faster, since two longs comparison costs
less, than loop thru bitmap.

This patchset raises several questions:

 Q: Think the problem you comments is already known so that I wrote comments
    about it as "it could consume lots of address space through fragmentation".
    Could you tell me about your situation and reason why it should be avoided?
                                                                     Gioh Kim

 A: Indeed, there was a commit 364376383 which adds explicit comment about
    fragmentation.  But fragmentation which is described in this comment caused
    by mixing of long-lived and short-lived objects, when a whole block is pinned
    in memory because some page slots are still in use.  But here I am talking
    about blocks which are free, nobody uses them, and allocator keeps them alive
    forever, continuously allocating new blocks.

 Q: I think that if you put newly allocated block to the tail of a free
    list, below example would results in enormous performance degradation.

    new block: 1MB (256 pages)

    while (iters--) {
      vm_map_ram(3 or something else not dividable for 256) * 85
      vm_unmap_ram(3) * 85
    }

    On every iteration, it needs newly allocated block and it is put to the
    tail of a free list so finding it consumes large amount of time.
                                                                    Joonsoo Kim

 A: Second patch in current patchset gets rid of extra search in a free list,
    so new block will be immediately occupied..

    Also, the scenario above is impossible, cause vm_map_ram allocates virtual
    range in orders, i.e. 2^n.  I.e. passing 3 to vm_map_ram you will allocate
    4 slots in a block and 256 slots (capacity of a block) of course dividable
    on 4, so block will be completely occupied.

    But there is a worst case which we can achieve: each free block has a hole
    equal to order size.

    The maximum size of allocation is 64 pages for 64-bit system
    (if you try to map more, original alloc_vmap_area will be called).

    So the maximum order is 6.  That means that worst case, before allocator
    makes a decision to allocate a new block, is to iterate 7 blocks:

    HEAD
    1st block - has 1  page slot  free (order 0)
    2nd block - has 2  page slots free (order 1)
    3rd block - has 4  page slots free (order 2)
    4th block - has 8  page slots free (order 3)
    5th block - has 16 page slots free (order 4)
    6th block - has 32 page slots free (order 5)
    7th block - has 64 page slots free (order 6)
    TAIL

    So the worst scenario on 64-bit system is that each CPU queue can have 7
    blocks in a free list.

    This can happen only and only if you allocate blocks increasing the order.
    (as I did in the function written in the comment of the first patch)
    This is weird and rare case, but still it is possible.  Afterwards you will
    get 7 blocks in a list.

    All further requests should be placed in a newly allocated block or some
    free slots should be found in a free list.
    Seems it does not look dramatically awful.

This patch (of 3):

If suitable block can't be found, new block is allocated and put into a
head of a free list, so on next iteration this new block will be found
first.

That's bad, because old blocks in a free list will not get a chance to be
fully used, thus fragmentation will grow.

Let's consider this simple example:

 #1 We have one block in a free list which is partially used, and where only
    one page is free:

    HEAD |xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
                   ^
                   free space for 1 page, order 0

 #2 New allocation request of order 1 (2 pages) comes, new block is allocated
    since we do not have free space to complete this request. New block is put
    into a head of a free list:

    HEAD |----------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL

 #3 Two pages were occupied in a new found block:

    HEAD |xx--------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^
          two pages mapped here

 #4 New allocation request of order 0 (1 page) comes.  Block, which was created
    on #2 step, is located at the beginning of a free list, so it will be found
    first:

  HEAD |xxX-------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^                 ^
          page mapped here, but better to use this hole

It is obvious, that it is better to complete request of #4 step using the
old block, where free space is left, because in other case fragmentation
will be highly increased.

But fragmentation is not only the case.  The worst thing is that I can
easily create scenario, when the whole vmalloc space is exhausted by
blocks, which are not used, but already dirty and have several free pages.

Let's consider this function which execution should be pinned to one CPU:

static void exhaust_virtual_space(struct page *pages[16], int iters)
{
        /* Firstly we have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.
         * Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller
         * chunks, i.e. 8 pages. At the end small hole should remain.
         * So at the end of our allocation sequence block looks like
         * this:
         *                XX  big chunk
         * |XXxxxxxxx-|    x  small chunk
         *                 -  hole, which is enough for a small chunk,
         *                    but is not enough for a big chunk
         */
        while (iters--) {
                int i;
                void *vaddr;

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
        }
}

On every iteration new block (1MB of vm area in my case) will be
allocated and then will be occupied, without attempt to resolve small
allocation request using previously allocated blocks in a free list.

In case of random allocation (size should be randomly taken from the
range [1..64] in 64-bit case or [1..32] in 32-bit case) situation is the
same: new blocks continue to appear if maximum possible allocation size
(32 or 64) passed to the allocator, because all remaining blocks in a
free list do not have enough free space to complete this allocation
request.

In summary if new blocks are put into the head of a free list eventually
virtual space will be exhausted.

In current patch I simply put newly allocated block to the tail of a
free list, thus reduce fragmentation, giving a chance to resolve
allocation request using older blocks with possible holes left.

b9820d8f39 mm: change vunmap to tear down huge KVA mappings
Change vunmap_pmd_range() and vunmap_pud_range() to tear down huge KVA
mappings when they are set.  pud_clear_huge() and pmd_clear_huge() return
zero when no-operation is performed, i.e.  huge page mapping was not used.

These changes are only enabled when CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined
on the architecture.

0f616be120 mm: change __get_vm_area_node() to use fls_long()
ioremap() and its related interfaces are used to create I/O mappings to
memory-mapped I/O devices.  The mapping sizes of the traditional I/O
devices are relatively small.  Non-volatile memory (NVM), however, has
many GB and is going to have TB soon.  It is not very efficient to create
large I/O mappings with 4KB.

This patchset extends the ioremap() interfaces to transparently create I/O
mappings with huge pages whenever possible.  ioremap() continues to use
4KB mappings when a huge page does not fit into a requested range.  There
is no change necessary to the drivers using ioremap().  A requested
physical address must be aligned by a huge page size (1GB or 2MB on x86)
for using huge page mapping, though.  The kernel huge I/O mapping will
improve performance of NVM and other devices with large memory, and reduce
the time to create their mappings as well.

On x86, MTRRs can override PAT memory types with a 4KB granularity.  When
using a huge page, MTRRs can override the memory type of the huge page,
which may lead a performance penalty.  The processor can also behave in an
undefined manner if a huge page is mapped to a memory range that MTRRs
have mapped with multiple different memory types.  Therefore, the mapping
code falls back to use a smaller page size toward 4KB when a mapping range
is covered by non-WB type of MTRRs.  The WB type of MTRRs has no affect on
the PAT memory types.

The patchset introduces HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which indicates that the arch
supports huge KVA mappings for ioremap().  User may specify a new kernel
option "nohugeiomap" to disable the huge I/O mapping capability of
ioremap() when necessary.

Patch 1-4 change common files to support huge I/O mappings.  There is no
change in the functinalities unless HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined on the
architecture of the system.

Patch 5-6 implement the HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP funcs on x86, and set
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP on x86.

This patch (of 6):

__get_vm_area_node() takes unsigned long size, which is a 64-bit value on
a 64-bit kernel.  However, fls(size) simply ignores the upper 32-bit.
Change to use fls_long() to handle the size properly.

a5af5aa8b6 kasan, module, vmalloc: rework shadow allocation for modules
Current approach in handling shadow memory for modules is broken.

Shadow memory could be freed only after memory shadow corresponds it is no
longer used.  vfree() called from interrupt context could use memory its
freeing to store 'struct llist_node' in it:

    void vfree(const void *addr)
    {
    ...
        if (unlikely(in_interrupt())) {
            struct vfree_deferred *p = this_cpu_ptr(&vfree_deferred);
            if (llist_add((struct llist_node *)addr, &p->list))
                    schedule_work(&p->wq);

Later this list node used in free_work() which actually frees memory.
Currently module_memfree() called in interrupt context will free shadow
before freeing module's memory which could provoke kernel crash.

So shadow memory should be freed after module's memory.  However, such
deallocation order could race with kasan_module_alloc() in module_alloc().

Free shadow right before releasing vm area.  At this point vfree()'d
memory is not used anymore and yet not available for other allocations.
New VM_KASAN flag used to indicate that vm area has dynamically allocated
shadow memory so kasan frees shadow only if it was previously allocated.

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory

__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area.  Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole.  So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().

Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range().  Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.

f6f8ed4735 mm/vmalloc.c: clean up map_vm_area third argument
Currently map_vm_area() takes (struct page *** pages) as third argument,
and after mapping, it moves (*pages) to point to (*pages +
nr_mappped_pages).

It looks like this kind of increment is useless to its caller these
days.  The callers don't care about the increments and actually they're
trying to avoid this by passing another copy to map_vm_area().

The caller can always guarantee all the pages can be mapped into vm_area
as specified in first argument and the caller only cares about whether
map_vm_area() fails or not.

This patch cleans up the pointer movement in map_vm_area() and updates
its callers accordingly.

474750aba8 vmalloc: use rcu list iterator to reduce vmap_area_lock contention
Richard Yao reported a month ago that his system have a trouble with
vmap_area_lock contention during performance analysis by /proc/meminfo.
Andrew asked why his analysis checks /proc/meminfo stressfully, but he
didn't answer it.

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/10/416

Although I'm not sure that this is right usage or not, there is a
solution reducing vmap_area_lock contention with no side-effect.  That
is just to use rcu list iterator in get_vmalloc_info().

rcu can be used in this function because all RCU protocol is already
respected by writers, since Nick Piggin commit db64fe0225 ("mm:
rewrite vmap layer") back in linux-2.6.28

Specifically :
   insertions use list_add_rcu(),
   deletions use list_del_rcu() and kfree_rcu().

Note the rb tree is not used from rcu reader (it would not be safe),
only the vmap_area_list has full RCU protection.

Note that __purge_vmap_area_lazy() already uses this rcu protection.

        rcu_read_lock();
        list_for_each_entry_rcu(va, &vmap_area_list, list) {
                if (va->flags & VM_LAZY_FREE) {
                        if (va->va_start < *start)
                                *start = va->va_start;
                        if (va->va_end > *end)
                                *end = va->va_end;
                        nr += (va->va_end - va->va_start) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
                        list_add_tail(&va->purge_list, &valist);
                        va->flags |= VM_LAZY_FREEING;
                        va->flags &= ~VM_LAZY_FREE;
                }
        }
        rcu_read_unlock();

Peter:

: While rcu list traversal over the vmap_area_list is safe, this may
: arrive at different results than the spinlocked version. The rcu list
: traversal version will not be a 'snapshot' of a single, valid instant
: of the entire vmap_area_list, but rather a potential amalgam of
: different list states.

Joonsoo:

: Yes, you are right, but I don't think that we should be strict here.
: Meminfo is already not a 'snapshot' at specific time.  While we try to get
: certain stats, the other stats can change.  And, although we may arrive at
: different results than the spinlocked version, the difference would not be
: large and would not make serious side-effect.

zsmalloc needs exported unmap_kernel_range for building as a module.  See
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/18/487

I didn't send a patch to make unmap_kernel_range exportable at that time
because zram was staging stuff and I thought VM function exporting for
staging stuff makes no sense.

Now zsmalloc was promoted.  If we can't build zsmalloc as module, it means
we can't build zram as module, either.  Additionally, buddy map_vm_area is
already exported so let's export unmap_kernel_range to help his buddy.

3643763834 mm/vmalloc.c: enhance vm_map_ram() comment
vm_map_ram() has a fragmentation problem when it cannot purge a
chunk(ie, 4M address space) if there is a pinning object in that
addresss space.  So it could consume all VMALLOC address space easily.

We can fix the fragmentation problem by using vmap instead of
vm_map_ram() but vmap() is known to be slow compared to vm_map_ram().
Minchan said vm_map_ram is 5 times faster than vmap in his tests.  So I
thought we should fix fragment problem of vm_map_ram because our
proprietary GPU driver has used it heavily.

On second thought, it's not an easy because we should reuse freed space
for solving the problem and it could make more IPI and bitmap operation
for searching hole.  It could mitigate API's goal which is very fast
mapping.  And even fragmentation problem wouldn't show in 64 bit
machine.

Another option is that the user should separate long-life and short-life
object and use vmap for long-life but vm_map_ram for short-life.  If we
inform the user about the characteristic of vm_map_ram the user can
choose one according to the page lifetime.

Let's add some notice messages to user.

add688fbd3 Revert "mm/vmalloc: interchage the implementation of vmalloc_to_{pfn,page}"
Revert commit ece86e222d, which was intended as a small performance
improvement.

Despite the claim that the patch doesn't introduce any functional
changes in fact it does.

The "no page" path behaves different now.  Originally, vmalloc_to_page
might return NULL under some conditions, with new implementation it
returns pfn_to_page(0) which is not the same as NULL.

Simple test shows the difference.

test.c

#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/vmalloc.h>
#include <linux/mm.h>

int __init myi(void)
{
	struct page *p;
	void *v;

	v = vmalloc(PAGE_SIZE);
	/* trigger the "no page" path in vmalloc_to_page*/
	vfree(v);

	p = vmalloc_to_page(v);

	pr_err("expected val = NULL, returned val = %p", p);

	return -EBUSY;
}

void __exit mye(void)
{

}
module_init(myi)
module_exit(mye)

Before interchange:
expected val = NULL, returned val =   (null)

After interchange:
expected val = NULL, returned val = c7ebe000

ece86e222d mm/vmalloc: interchage the implementation of vmalloc_to_{pfn,page}
Currently we are implementing vmalloc_to_pfn() as a wrapper around
vmalloc_to_page(), which is implemented as follow:

 1. walks the page talbes to generates the corresponding pfn,
 2. then converts the pfn to struct page,
 3. returns it.

And vmalloc_to_pfn() re-wraps vmalloc_to_page() to get the pfn.

This seems too circuitous, so this patch reverses the way: implement
vmalloc_to_page() as a wrapper around vmalloc_to_pfn().  This makes
vmalloc_to_pfn() and vmalloc_to_page() slightly more efficient.

No functional change.

7f88f88f83 mm: kmemleak: avoid false negatives on vmalloc'ed objects
Commit 248ac0e194 ("mm/vmalloc: remove guard page from between vmap
blocks") had the side effect of making vmap_area.va_end member point to
the next vmap_area.va_start.  This was creating an artificial reference
to vmalloc'ed objects and kmemleak was rarely reporting vmalloc() leaks.

This patch marks the vmap_area containing pointers explicitly and
reduces the min ref_count to 2 as vm_struct still contains a reference
to the vmalloc'ed object.  The kmemleak add_scan_area() function has
been improved to allow a SIZE_MAX argument covering the rest of the
object (for simpler calling sites).

af12346cda mm/vmalloc: revert "mm/vmalloc.c: check VM_UNINITIALIZED flag in s_show instead of show_numa_info"
The VM_UNINITIALIZED/VM_UNLIST flag introduced by f5252e009d ("mm:

to avoid accessing the pages field with unallocated page when
show_numa_info() is called.

This patch moves the check just before show_numa_info in order that some

bcb615a81b mm/vmalloc.c: fix an overflow bug in alloc_vmap_area()
When searching a vmap area in the vmalloc space, we use (addr + size -
1) to check if the value is less than addr, which is an overflow.  But
we assign (addr + size) to vmap_area->va_end.

So if we come across the below case:

  (addr + size - 1) : not overflow
  (addr + size)     : overflow

we will assign an overflow value (e.g 0) to vmap_area->va_end, And this
will trigger BUG in __insert_vmap_area, causing system panic.

So using (addr + size) to check the overflow should be the correct
behaviour, not (addr + size - 1).

3fcd76e802 mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_alloc
Space in a vmap block that was once allocated is considered dirty and
not made available for allocation again before the whole block is
recycled.  The result is that free space within a vmap block is always
contiguous.

So if a vmap block has enough free space for allocation, the allocation
is impossible to fail.  Thus, the fragmented block purging was never
invoked from vb_alloc().  So remove this dead code.

e69e9d4aee vmalloc: introduce remap_vmalloc_range_partial
We want to allocate ELF note segment buffer on the 2nd kernel in vmalloc
space and remap it to user-space in order to reduce the risk that memory
allocation fails on system with huge number of CPUs and so with huge ELF
note segment that exceeds 11-order block size.

Although there's already remap_vmalloc_range for the purpose of
remapping vmalloc memory to user-space, we need to specify user-space
range via vma.
 Mmap on /proc/vmcore needs to remap range across multiple objects, so
the interface that requires vma to cover full range is problematic.

This patch introduces remap_vmalloc_range_partial that receives user-space
range as a pair of base address and size and can be used for mmap on
/proc/vmcore case.

remap_vmalloc_range is rewritten using remap_vmalloc_range_partial.

cef2ac3f6c vmalloc: make find_vm_area check in range
Currently, __find_vmap_area searches for the kernel VM area starting at
a given address.  This patch changes this behavior so that it searches
for the kernel VM area to which the address belongs.  This change is
needed by remap_vmalloc_range_partial to be introduced in later patch
that receives any position of kernel VM area as target address.

This patch changes the condition (addr > va->va_start) to the equivalent
(addr >= va->va_end) by taking advantage of the fact that each kernel VM
area is non-overlapping.

13ba3fcbbe kexec, vmalloc: export additional vmalloc layer information
Now, vmap_area_list is exported as VMCOREINFO for makedumpfile to get
the start address of vmalloc region (vmalloc_start).  The address which
contains vmalloc_start value is represented as below:

  vmap_area_list.next - OFFSET(vmap_area.list) + OFFSET(vmap_area.va_start)

However, both OFFSET(vmap_area.va_start) and OFFSET(vmap_area.list)
aren't exported as VMCOREINFO.

So this patch exports them externally with small cleanup.
