This requires a fix for nommu builds.

Fix "mm/vmalloc: remove map_kernel_range"
Fixes: "percpu.c:undefined reference to `vmap_pages_range_noflush'" on
riscv nommu builds.
Previous code had a strange NOMMU implementation of
map_kernel_range_noflush that came in with commit b554cb426a955
("NOMMU: support SMP dynamic percpu_alloc") which would return
success if the size was <= PAGE_SIZE, but that has no way of working
on NOMMU because the page can not be mapped to the new start address
even if there is only one of them. So change this code to always
return failure.
NOMMU probably needs to take a closer look at what it does with
percpu-vm.c and carve out a special case there if necessary rather
than pretend vmap works.
