[PATCH v2 25/34] kasan, vmalloc: don't unpoison VM_ALLOC pages before mapping

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl at google.com>

This patch makes KASAN unpoison vmalloc mappings after that 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().
