[RFC PATCH 5/8] mm/vmalloc: map contiguous pages in batches for vmap() if possible

["Barry Song (Xiaomi)" <baohua@kernel.org>]

In many cases, the pages passed to vmap() may include high-order
pages allocated with __GFP_COMP flags. For example, the systemheap
often allocates pages in descending order: order 8, then 4, then 0.
Currently, vmap() iterates over every page individually—even pages
inside a high-order block are handled one by one.

This patch detects high-order pages and maps them as a single
contiguous block whenever possible.

An alternative would be to implement a new API, vmap_sg(), but that
change seems to be large in scope.
