[PATCH v3 4/7] mm/vmalloc: explicitly identify vm_map_ram area when shown in /proc/vmcoreinfo

Now, by marking VMAP_RAM in vmap_area->flags for vm_map_ram, we can
clearly differentiate it with other vmalloc areas. So identify
vm_map_area area by checking VMAP_RAM of vmap_area->flags when shown
in /proc/vmcoreinfo.

Meanwhile, the code comment above vm_map_ram area checking in s_show()
is not needed any more, remove it here.
