mm: vmalloc: pass additional vm_flags to __vmalloc_node_range()
For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory
for modules. So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for
shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address
allocated in module_alloc().
__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area. Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole. So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().
Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range(). Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.
