Subject: [PATCH 5/7] mm/vmalloc: Use a trace_purge_vmap_area_lazy event

This is for debug purpose and is called when all outstanding
areas are removed back to the vmap space. It gives some extra
information about:
- a start:end range where set of vmap ares were freed;
- a number of purged areas which were backed off.
