mm/vmalloc: rework the drain logic

Browse Source 
A current "lazy drain" model suffers from at least two issues.

First one is related to the unsorted list of vmap areas, thus in order to
identify the [min:max] range of areas to be drained, it requires a full
list scan.  What is a time consuming if the list is too long.

Second one and as a next step is about merging all fragments with a free
space.  What is also a time consuming because it has to iterate over
entire list which holds outstanding lazy areas.

See below the "preemptirqsoff" tracer that illustrates a high latency.  It
is ~24676us.  Our workloads like audio and video are effected by such long
latency:

<snip>

To address those two issues we can redesign a purging of the outstanding
lazy areas.  Instead of queuing vmap areas to the list, we replace it by
the separate rb-tree.  In hat case an area is located in the tree/list in
ascending order.  It will give us below advantages:

a) Outstanding vmap areas are merged creating bigger coalesced blocks,
   thus it becomes less fragmented.

b) It is possible to calculate a flush range [min:max] without scanning
   all elements.  It is O(1) access time or complexity;

c) The final merge of areas with the rb-tree that represents a free
   space is faster because of (a).  As a result the lock contention is
   also reduced.
