    module/decompress: Never use kunmap() for local un-mappings
    
    [ Upstream commit 3c17655ab13704582fe25e8ea3200a9b2f8bf20a ]
    
    Use kunmap_local() to unmap pages locally mapped with kmap_local_page().
    
    kunmap_local() must be called on the kernel virtual address returned by
    kmap_local_page(), differently from how we use kunmap() which instead
    expects the mapped page as its argument.
    
    In module_zstd_decompress() we currently map with kmap_local_page() and
    unmap with kunmap(). This breaks the code and so it should be fixed.
