Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] mm: apply __must_check to vmap_pages_range_noflush()

To prevent errors when vmap_pages_range_noflush() or
__vmap_pages_range_noflush() silently fail (see the link below for an
example), annotate them with __must_check so that the callers do not
unconditionally assume the mapping succeeded.
