[patch 07/16] mm/kasan: don't vfree() nonexistent vm_area

Subject: mm/kasan: don't vfree() nonexistent vm_area

KASAN uses different routines to map shadow for hot added memory and
memory obtained in boot process.  Attempt to offline memory onlined by
normal boot process leads to this:

    Trying to vfree() nonexistent vm area (000000005d3b34b9)
    WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 13215 at mm/vmalloc.c:1525 __vunmap+0x147/0x190

     SyS_write+0xb0/0x140

Obviously we can't call vfree() to free memory that wasn't allocated via
vmalloc().  Use find_vm_area() to see if we can call vfree().

Unfortunately it's a bit tricky to properly unmap and free shadow
allocated during boot, so we'll have to keep it.  If memory will come
online again that shadow will be reused.

Matthew asked: how can you call vfree() on something that isn't a
vmalloc address?

  vfree() is able to free any address returned by
  __vmalloc_node_range().  And __vmalloc_node_range() gives you any
  address you ask.  It doesn't have to be an address in [VMALLOC_START,
  VMALLOC_END] range.

  That's also how the module_alloc()/module_memfree() works on
  architectures that have designated area for modules.
