From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@xxxxxxxxxx> vmalloc area runs out in our ARM64 system during an erofs test as vm_map_ram failed[1]. By following the debug log, we find that vm_map_ram()->vb_alloc() will allocate new vb->va which corresponding to 4MB vmalloc area as list_for_each_entry_rcu returns immediately when vbq->free->next points to vbq->free. That is to say, 65536 times of page fault after the list's broken will run out of the whole vmalloc area. This should be introduced by one vbq->free->next point to vbq->free which makes list_for_each_entry_rcu can not iterate the list and find the BUG.
