Subject: mm/vmalloc: fix wrong behavior in vread

commit f608788cd2d6 ("mm/vmalloc: use rb_tree instead of list for vread()
lookups") use rb_tree instread of list to speed up lookup, but function
__find_vmap_area is try to find a vmap_area that include target address,
if target address is smaller than the leftmost node in vmap_area_root, it
will return NULL, then vread will read nothing.  This behavior is
different from the primitive semantics.

The correct way is find the first vmap_are that bigger than target addr,
that is what function find_vmap_area_exceed_addr does.
