mm: avoid null pointer access in vm_struct via /proc/vmallocinfo

The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in
vmlist that is a linklist of vm_struct.  It, however, may access pages
field of vm_struct where a page was not allocated.  This results in a null
pointer access and leads to a kernel panic.

Why this happens: In __vmalloc_node_range() called from vmalloc(), newly
allocated vm_struct is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then,
some fields of vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at
__vmalloc_area_node().  In other words, it is added to vmlist before it is
fully initialized.  At the same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read,
it accesses the pages field of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field
at show_numa_info().  Thus, a null pointer access happens.

The patch adds the newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is
fully initialized.  So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with
unallocated page when show_numa_info() is called.
