Patch series "mm: Get rid of vmalloc_sync_(un)mappings()", v3.

After the recent issue with vmalloc and tracing code[1] on x86 and a
long history of previous issues related to the vmalloc_sync_mappings()
interface, I thought the time has come to remove it.  Please see [2],
[3], and [4] for some other issues in the past.

The patches add tracking of page-table directory changes to the vmalloc
and ioremap code.  Depending on which page-table levels changes have
been made, a new per-arch function is called:
arch_sync_kernel_mappings().

On x86-64 with 4-level paging, this function will not be called more
than 64 times in a systems runtime (because vmalloc-space takes 64 PGD
entries which are only populated, but never cleared).

As a side effect this also allows to get rid of vmalloc faults on x86,
making it safe to touch vmalloc'ed memory in the page-fault handler.
Note that this potentially includes per-cpu memory.

This patch (of 7):

Add page-table allocation functions which will keep track of changed
directory entries.  They are needed for new PGD, P4D, PUD, and PMD
entries and will be used in vmalloc and ioremap code to decide whether
any changes in the kernel mappings need to be synchronized between
page-tables in the system.
