mm/vmalloc: add vmalloc_no_huge

mainline inclusion
from mainline-5.13
commit 15a64f5a
category: feature
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I3ZGKZ
CVE: NA

-------------------------------------------------

Patch series "mm: add vmalloc_no_huge and use it", v4.

Add vmalloc_no_huge() and export it, so modules can allocate memory with
small pages.

Use the newly added vmalloc_no_huge() in KVM on s390 to get around a
hardware limitation.

This patch (of 2):

Commit 121e6f32 ("mm/vmalloc: hugepage vmalloc mappings") added
support for hugepage vmalloc mappings, it also added the flag
VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP for __vmalloc_node_range to request the allocation to be
performed with 0-order non-huge pages.

This flag is not accessible when calling vmalloc, the only option is to
call directly __vmalloc_node_range, which is not exported.

This means that a module can't vmalloc memory with small pages.

Case in point: KVM on s390x needs to vmalloc a large area, and it needs
to be mapped with non-huge pages, because of a hardware limitation.

This patch adds the function vmalloc_no_huge, which works like vmalloc,
but it is guaranteed to always back the mapping using small pages.  This
new function is exported, therefore it is usable by modules.
