> Patch [1] replaced vmalloc() function with a new definition but it did
> not adjust the forward declaration used in UML architecture. Change it
> to act as before.
> Note that this prevents the vmalloc() allocations in __wrap_malloc()
> from being accounted. If accounting here is critical, we will have
> to remove this forward declaration and include vmalloc.h, however
> that would pull in more dependencies and would require introducing more
> architecture-specific headers, like asm/bug.h, asm/rwonce.h, etc.
> This is likely the reason why this forward declaration was introduced
> in the first place.
