Subject: [PATCHv4 1/1] mm: fix incorrect vbq reference in purge_fragmented_block

From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@...soc.com>

vmalloc area runs out in our ARM64 system during an erofs test as
vm_map_ram failed[1]. By following the debug log, we find that
vm_map_ram()->vb_alloc() will allocate new vb->va which corresponding
to 4MB vmalloc area as list_for_each_entry_rcu returns immediately
when vbq->free->next points to vbq->free. That is to say, 65536 times
of page fault after the list's broken will run out of the whole
vmalloc area. This should be introduced by one vbq->free->next point to
vbq->free which makes list_for_each_entry_rcu can not iterate the list
and find the BUG.

v2: introduce cpu in vmap_block to record the right CPU number
v3: use get_cpu/put_cpu to prevent schedule between core
v4: replace get_cpu/put_cpu by another API to avoid disabling preemption
