Subject: mm/vmalloc: fix size check for remap_vmalloc_range_partial()

area->size can include adjacent guard page but get_vm_area_size() returns
actual size of the area.

This fixes possible kernel crash when userspace tries to map area on 1
page bigger: size check passes but the following vmalloc_to_page() returns
NULL on last guard (non-existing) page.
