[PATCH 1/4] don't call __vmalloc from other vmap internal functions

[Glauber Costa]

If we do that, output of files like /proc/vmallocinfo
will show things like "vmalloc_32", "vmalloc_user", or
whomever the caller was as the caller. This info is not
as useful as the real caller of the allocation.

So, proposal is to call __vmalloc_node node directly, with
matching parameters to save the caller information
