[RFC][PATCH v2 23/23] __vmalloc: add gfp flags variant of pte, pmd, and pud allocation

__vmalloc: propagating GFP allocation flag.

- Added __map_vm_area, __vmap_page_range, __vmap_page_range_noflush
to accept the gfp_t allocation flag
- Added pud_alloc_with_mask(), similar to pud_alloc(), but also
accepts allocation flag
- Added pmd_alloc_with_mask
- Added pte_alloc_kernel_with_mask
- Modified __pte_alloc_kernel to accept allocation flag
- Every architecture has to add a function
__pte_alloc_one_kernel(struct mm_struct*, unsigned long, gfp_t)
- Modified __pmd_alloc to accept the allocation flag
- Every architecture has to add a function __pmd_alloc_one(struct
mm_struct *, unsigned long, gfp_t)
- Changed __pud_alloc to accepts gfp allocation flag
- Every architecture that uses pud has to add a function
__pud_alloc_one(struct mm_struct *, unsigned long, gfp_t)
- fixes the Bug 30702 (__vmalloc(GFP_NOFS) can callback file system
  evict_inode).
