[PATCH] mm/vmalloc.c: don't dereference possible NULL pointer in __vunmap.

[PATCH] mm/vmalloc.c: don't dereference possible NULL pointer in __vunmap.

[Liviu Dudau]

find_vmap_area() can return a NULL pointer and we're going to dereference
it without checking it first. Use the existing find_vm_area() function
which does exactly what we want and checks for the NULL pointer.

Fixes: f3c01d2f3ade ("mm: vmalloc: avoid racy handling of debugobjects
in vunmap")
