I find the issue is introduced when applying commit f9040773b7bb
("arm64: move kernel image to base of vmalloc area"). This patch
make the kernel image overlap with vmalloc area. It will result in
vmalloc area have the huge page table. but the vmalloc_to_page is
not realize the change. and the function is public to any arch.

I fix it by adding the another kernel image condition in vmalloc_to_page
to make it keep the accordance with previous vmalloc mapping.

Fixes: f9040773b7bb ("arm64: move kernel image to base of vmalloc area")
