[PATCH v2 1/2] mm/vmalloc: extract vmalloc_free_pages() helper from vfree()

[Shivam Kalra via B4 Relay]

From: Shivam Kalra <shivamkalra98@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Extract the page-freeing loop and NR_VMALLOC stat accounting from
vfree() into a reusable vmalloc_free_pages() helper. The helper operates
on a range [start, end) of pages from a vm_struct, making it suitable
for both full free (vfree) and partial free (upcoming vrealloc shrink).

No functional change.
