Try to align the vmap virtual address to PMD_SHIFT or a
larger PTE mapping size hinted by the architecture, so
contiguous pages can be batch-mapped when setting PMD or
PTE entries. We do not expect any significant overhead for
this.

Add __get_vm_area_node_aligned_caller() as a wrapper over
__get_vm_area_node() to simplify repeated calls with fixed
arguments.

Sashiko review: raised two concerns:

- Hardcoding GFP_KERNEL in __get_vm_area_node_aligned_caller() strips the
  caller's ability to prevent blocking, reclaim, or warnings.

- The speculative PMD-aligned allocation, on failure, could trigger
  spurious vmalloc purges (reclaim_and_purge_vmap_areas(), synchronous
  TLB flushes, shrinker storms), a possible DoS for vmap() >= PMD_SIZE.

Both follow existing behavior: GFP_KERNEL matches the adjacent
get_vm_area_caller(), which hardcodes it the same way. The purge concern
is not new -- __vmalloc_node_range() already attempts PMD-aligned
allocation in __get_vm_area_node() with the same fallback through
alloc_vmap_area() overflow/purge, so vmap_get_aligned_vm_area() adds no
new purge behavior.
