Subject: vmalloc: show lazy-purged vma info in vmallocinfo

When ioremap a 67112960 bytes vm_area with the vmallocinfo:
 [..]
 0xec79b000-0xec7fa000  389120 ftl_add_mtd+0x4d0/0x754 pages=94 vmalloc
 0xec800000-0xecbe1000 4067328 kbox_proc_mem_write+0x104/0x1c4 phys=8b520000 ioremap

we get the result:
 0xf1000000-0xf5001000 67112960 devm_ioremap+0x38/0x7c phys=40000000 ioremap

For the align for ioremap must be less than '1 << IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER':
	if (flags & VM_IOREMAP)
		align = 1ul << clamp_t(int, get_count_order_long(size),
			PAGE_SHIFT, IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER);

So it makes idiot like me a litte puzzled why this was a jump the vm_area from

0xec800000-0xecbe1000 to 0xf1000000-0xf5001000, and leaving
0xed000000-0xf1000000 as a big hole.

This patch is to show all of vm_area, including vmas which are freeing but
still in the vmap_area_list, to make it more clear about why we will get
0xf1000000-0xf5001000 in the above case.  And we will get a vmallocinfo
like:

 [..]
 0xec79b000-0xec7fa000  389120 ftl_add_mtd+0x4d0/0x754 pages=94 vmalloc
 0xec800000-0xecbe1000 4067328 kbox_proc_mem_write+0x104/0x1c4 phys=8b520000 ioremap
 [..]
 0xece7c000-0xece7e000    8192 unpurged vm_area
 0xece7e000-0xece83000   20480 vm_map_ram
 0xf0099000-0xf00aa000   69632 vm_map_ram
after apply this patch.
