Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: s390: fix for hugepage vmalloc

The Create Secure Configuration Ultravisor Call does not support using
large pages for the virtual memory area. This is a hardware limitation.

This patch replaces the vzalloc call with a longer but equivalent
__vmalloc_node_range call, also setting the VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP flag, to
guarantee that this allocation will not be performed with large pages.
