Introduce is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() and use with DEBUG_VIRTUAL
Impact: crash on module insertion with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL
We would incorrectly BUG due to:
VIRTUAL_BUG_ON(!is_vmalloc_addr(vmalloc_addr) &&
!is_module_address(addr));
... because, at least on x86-64, is_module_address() doesn't do what
it should. This patch introduces is_vmalloc_or_module_addr(), which
is what we really want anyway, and uses it instead.
