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. ]
