Brendan Jackman a03ed8f144 mm/vmalloc: clarify why vmap_range_noflush() might sleep 
The only reason vmap_range_noflush() can sleep is because of pagetable
allocations.

The actual allocation mechanism is arch-specific so might_alloc() doesn't
work here (what GFP flags would be used?).  Hence, just add a comment.

Also note that this might do a TLB shootdown.  This is not actually
sleeping but it requires IRQs on for x86, and might_sleep() incidentally
serves to detect violations of that too.
