Changelog:
 *v1 -> v2: rebase against mmotm tree

The caller address has already been set in set_vmalloc_vm(), there's no need
to set it again in __vmalloc_area_node.

Changelog:
 *v2 -> v3: revert commit d157a558 directly

The VM_UNINITIALIZED/VM_UNLIST flag introduced by commit f5252e00(mm: avoid
null pointer access in vm_struct via /proc/vmallocinfo) is used to avoid
accessing the pages field with unallocated page when show_numa_info() is
called. This patch move the check just before show_numa_info in order that
some messages still can be dumped via /proc/vmallocinfo. This patch revert 
commit d157a558 (mm/vmalloc.c: check VM_UNINITIALIZED flag in s_show instead 
of show_numa_info);

Changelog:
 *v4 -> v5: return directly for !VM_VM_AREA case and remove (VM_LAZY_FREE | VM_LAZY_FREEING) check 

There is a race window between vmap_area tear down and show vmap_area information.

	A                                                B

remove_vm_area
spin_lock(&vmap_area_lock);
va->vm = NULL;
va->flags &= ~VM_VM_AREA;
spin_unlock(&vmap_area_lock);
						spin_lock(&vmap_area_lock);
						if (va->flags & (VM_LAZY_FREE | VM_LAZY_FREEZING))
							return 0;
						if (!(va->flags & VM_VM_AREA)) {
							seq_printf(m, "0x%pK-0x%pK %7ld vm_map_ram\n",
								(void *)va->va_start, (void *)va->va_end,
								va->va_end - va->va_start);
							return 0;
						}
free_unmap_vmap_area(va);
	flush_cache_vunmap
	free_unmap_vmap_area_noflush
		unmap_vmap_area
		free_vmap_area_noflush
			va->flags |= VM_LAZY_FREE 

The assumption !VM_VM_AREA represents vm_map_ram allocation is introduced by 
commit: d4033afd(mm, vmalloc: iterate vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist, in 
vmallocinfo()). However, !VM_VM_AREA also represents vmap_area is being tear 
down in race window mentioned above. This patch fix it by don't dump any 
information for !VM_VM_AREA case and also remove (VM_LAZY_FREE | VM_LAZY_FREEING)
check since they are not possible for !VM_VM_AREA case.
