Subject: [PATCH v2 6/7] mm: vmalloc: Use trace_free_vmap_area_noflush event

It is for a debug purpose and is called when a vmap area
gets freed. This event gives some indication about:
- a start address of released area;
- a current number of outstanding pages;
- a maximum number of allowed outstanding pages.
