Chintan Pandya 82a2e924ff mm: vmalloc: clean up vunmap to avoid pgtable ops twice
vunmap does page table clear operations twice in the case when
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT is enabled.

So, clean up the code as that is unintended.

As a perf gain, we save few us.  Below ftrace data was obtained while
doing 1 MB of vmalloc/vfree on ARM64 based SoC *without* this patch
applied.  After this patch, we can save ~3 us (on 1 extra
vunmap_page_range).

 6) + 45.468 us   |    }
 6)   2.760 us    |    vunmap_page_range();
 6) ! 505.105 us  |  }

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
