Subject: mm/vmalloc: add __alloc_size attributes for better bounds checking

As already done in GrapheneOS, add the __alloc_size attribute for
appropriate vmalloc allocator interfaces, to provide additional hinting
for better bounds checking, assisting CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE and other
compiler optimizations.
