[PATCH v3] android: binder: use VM_ALLOC to get vm area

[Ganesh Mahendran]

VM_IOREMAP is used to access hardware through a mechanism called
I/O mapped memory. Android binder is a IPC machanism which will
not access I/O memory.

And VM_IOREMAP has alignment requiement which may not needed in
binder.
    __get_vm_area_node()
    {
    ...
        if (flags & VM_IOREMAP)
            align = 1ul << clamp_t(int, fls_long(size),
               PAGE_SHIFT, IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER);
    ...
    }

This patch will save some kernel vm area, especially for 32bit os.

In 32bit OS, kernel vm area is only 240MB. We may got below
error when launching a app:

<3>[ 4482.440053] binder_alloc: binder_alloc_mmap_handler: 15728 8ce67000-8cf65000 get_vm_area failed -12
<3>[ 4483.218817] binder_alloc: binder_alloc_mmap_handler: 15745 8ce67000-8cf65000 get_vm_area failed -12
