vmalloc: separate out insert_vmalloc_vm()
Separate out insert_vmalloc_vm() from __get_vm_area_node().
insert_vmalloc_vm() initializes vm_struct from vmap_area and inserts
it into vmlist. insert_vmalloc_vm() only initializes fields which can
be determined from @vm, @flags and @caller The rest should be
initialized by the caller. For __get_vm_area_node(), all other fields
just need to be cleared and this is done by using kzalloc instead of
kmalloc.
This will be used to implement pcpu_get_vm_areas().
