[PATCH] arm64: allow vmalloc regions to be set with set_memory_*

The range of set_memory_* is currently restricted to the module address
range because of difficulties in breaking down larger block sizes.
vmalloc maps PAGE_SIZE pages so it is safe to use as well. Update the
function ranges and add a comment explaining why the range is restricted
the way it is.

What's the user for this? It would be better to apply along with something
that actually needs to change permission for arbitrary vmalloc mappings.

Anyway, with that (and a rebase to -rc2):
