Did we exhaust the vmalloc area completely?

Since only the swapon failed, I think you might still have the console
up right? So this is mostly a vmalloc allocation failure report?

Though above are mainly the physical mem info printed, but vmalloc can
also fail sometimes (e.g. this report), it is nice if we can print how
much of vmalloc space is free out of vmalloc total in show_mem() here.
Maybe linux-mm can tell if we should add this diff change for future?

But meanwhile below data can give more details about the vmalloc area.
