You can not access area after the lock is dropped. We do not have any
ref counters for VA objects. Therefore it should be done like below:


<snip>
  spin_lock(&vmap_area_lock);
  va = __find_vmap_area(addr, &vmap_area_root);
  if (va && va->vm)
    va_size = va->vm->size;
  spin_unlock(&vmap_area_lock);

  return va_size;
