Subject: [PATCH -mm 1/2] mm, vmalloc: Rename VM_UNLIST to VM_UNINITIALIZED

From: Zhang Yanfei <[email protected]>

VM_UNLIST was used to indicate that the vm_struct is not listed
in vmlist. But after commit 4341fa4:
mm, vmalloc: remove list management of vmlist after initializing vmalloc
, the meaning of this flag changed. It now means the vm_struct
is not fully initialized. So renaming it to VM_UNINITIALIZED
seems more reasonable.

Also change clear_vm_unlist to clear_vm_uninitialized_flag.

Subject: [PATCH -mm 2/2] mm, vmalloc: Check VM_UNINITIALIZED flag in s_show instead of show_numa_info

From: Zhang Yanfei <[email protected]>

We should check the VM_UNITIALIZED flag in s_show(). If this
flag is set, that said, the vm_struct is not fully initialized.
So it is unnecessary to try to show the information contained
in vm_struct.

We checked this flag in show_numa_info(), but I think it's better
to check it earlier.
