mm/vmalloc: respect passed gfp_mask when doing preloading
Allocation functions should comply with the given gfp_mask as much as possible. The preallocation code in alloc_vmap_area doesn't follow that pattern and it is using a hardcoded GFP_KERNEL. Although this doesn't really make much difference because vmalloc is not GFP_NOWAIT compliant in general (e.g. page table allocations are GFP_KERNEL) there is no reason to spread that bad habit and it is good to fix the antipattern.
