Subject: mm/vmalloc: remove vmap_area_list
Date: Tue, 2 Jan 2024 19:46:27 +0100
Earlier, vmap_area_list is exported to vmcoreinfo so that makedumpfile get
the base address of vmalloc area. Now, vmap_area_list is empty, so export
VMALLOC_START to vmcoreinfo instead, and remove vmap_area_list.
[urezki@xxxxxxxxx: fix a warning in the crash_save_vmcoreinfo_init()]
