Sometimes we need to figure out which vmalloc address is in use
for a certain page struct. There is no easy way to figure out
the vmalloc address from the page struct. So simply search through
the kernel page tables to find the address. This is a fairly expensive
process. Use sparingly (or provide a better implementation).
