[RFC PATCH 2/7] mm: vmalloc: don't account for number of nodes for HUGE_VMAP allocations

[Mike Rapoport]

From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt at kernel.org>

vmalloc allocations with VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP that do not explictly
specify node ID will use huge pages only if size_per_node is larger than
PMD_SIZE.
Still the actual allocated memory is not distributed between nodes and
there is no advantage in such approach.
On the contrary, BPF allocates PMD_SIZE * num_possible_nodes() for each
new bpf_prog_pack, while it could do with PMD_SIZE'ed packs.

Don't account for number of nodes for VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP with
NUMA_NO_NODE and use huge pages whenever the requested allocation size
is larger than PMD_SIZE.
