[PATCH mm v5 26/39] kasan, vmalloc: unpoison VM_ALLOC pages after mapping

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl at google.com>

Make KASAN unpoison vmalloc mappings after they have been mapped in
when it's possible: for vmalloc() (indentified via VM_ALLOC) and
vm_map_ram().

The reasons for this are:

- For vmalloc() and vm_map_ram(): pages don't get unpoisoned in case
  mapping them fails.
- For vmalloc(): HW_TAGS KASAN needs pages to be mapped to set tags via
  kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().

As a part of these changes, the return value of __vmalloc_node_range()
is changed to area->addr. This is a non-functional change, as
__vmalloc_area_node() returns area->addr anyway.

Changes v3->v4:
- Don't forget to save tagged addr to vm_struct->addr for VM_ALLOC
  so that find_vm_area(addr)->addr == addr for vmalloc().
- Reword comments.
- Update patch description.

Changes v2->v3:
- Update patch description.
