The dedupe range is 16 MiB, with 4KiB pages and 8 byte pointers, the
arrays can be 32KiB large. To avoid allocation failures due to
fragmented memory, use the allocation with fallback to vmalloc.

This depends on the patches that remove the 16MiB restriction in the
dedupe ioctl, but contextually can be applied to the current code too.
