[PATCH] mm/vmalloc: add missing __GFP_HIGHMEM flag for vmalloc

From: Chen Wandun
Date: Sun Jul 25 2021 - 23:14:36 EST


struct page array can also be allocated in highmem during vmalloc,
that will ease the low memory stress in 32bit system.

Fixes: f255935b9767 ("mm: cleanup the gfp_mask handling in __vmalloc_area_node")
