[PATCH 2/6] mm/vmalloc: set area's page_order after allocation succeeds

["Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>]

__vmalloc_area_node() calls set_vm_area_page_order() to set area's
page_order before actually allocating pages to populate the area.

If allocation of large pages in HUGE_VMAP case fails midway, this leaves
the area with elevated page_order throughout the cleanup path.

There is no actual issue with this because the only place that currently
relies on area->page_order on the cleanup path is the loop calculating
the direct map alias range in vm_reset_perms() and it anyway skips
unpopulated pages.

But having set_vm_area_page_order() in the middle of __vmalloc_area_node()
makes things very obscure, hard to reason about and error prone against
future changes of the cleanup path.

Move the call to set_vm_area_page_order() after __vmalloc_area_node()
succeeded where page order is guaranteed.
