From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: revert "Revert "mm/vmalloc: modify struct vmap_area to reduce its size""
Revert linux-next's bdbfb1d52d5e5 ("Revert "mm/vmalloc: modify struct
vmap_area to reduce its size"").
Numerous reports of kernel crashes due to this. We can't figure out what
it's for or why it's in -next.
