get_vm_area always returns an area with an adjacent guard page. That guard
page is included in vm_struct.size. iounmap uses vm_struct.size to
determine how much address space needs to have change_page_attr applied to
it, which will BUG if applied to the guard page.
This patch adds a helper function - get_vm_area_size() in linux/vmalloc.h -
to return the actual size of a vm area, and uses it to make iounmap do the
right thing. There are probably other places which should be using
get_vm_area_size().
Thanks to Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> for debugging the
problem.
[ Andi, it wasn't clear to me whether x86_64 needs the same fix. ]
