Objective
---------
The current implementation of struct vmap_area wasted space.
After applying this commit, sizeof(struct vmap_area) has been
reduced from 11 words to 8 words.
Description
-----------
1) Pack "subtree_max_size", "vm" and "purge_list".
This is no problem because
A) "subtree_max_size" is only used when vmap_area is in
"free" tree
B) "vm" is only used when vmap_area is in "busy" tree
C) "purge_list" is only used when vmap_area is in
vmap_purge_list
2) Eliminate "flags".
Since only one flag VM_VM_AREA is being used, and the same
thing can be done by judging whether "vm" is NULL, then the
"flags" can be eliminated.
