[PATCH v7] mm: Distinguish VMalloc pages

[Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org>]

For diagnosing various performance and memory-leak problems, it is helpful
to be able to distinguish pages which are in use as VMalloc pages.
Unfortunately, we cannot use the page_type field in struct page, as
this is in use for mapcount by some drivers which map vmalloced pages
to userspace.

Use a special page->mapping value to distinguish VMalloc pages from
other kinds of pages.  Also record a pointer to the vm_struct and the
offset within the area in struct page to help reconstruct exactly what
this page is being used for.

v7: Use a value which has the bottom bit set so that page_mapping()
returns NULL.  Comments updated to note this bit of "cleverness".
