Linus Walleij f7b0ff2bc9 fork: define a local GFP_VMAP_STACK 
The current allocation of VMAP stack memory is using (THREADINFO_GFP &
~__GFP_ACCOUNT) which is a complicated way of saying (GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_ZERO):

<linux/thread_info.h>:
define THREADINFO_GFP (GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT | __GFP_ZERO)
<linux/gfp_types.h>:
define GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT (GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ACCOUNT)

This is an unfortunate side-effect of independent changes blurring the
picture:

commit 19809c2da2 changed (THREADINFO_GFP |
__GFP_HIGHMEM) to just THREADINFO_GFP since highmem became implicit.

commit 9b6f7e163c then added stack caching
and rewrote the allocation to (THREADINFO_GFP & ~__GFP_ACCOUNT) as cached
stacks need to be accounted separately.  However that code, when it
eventually accounts the memory does this:

  ret = memcg_kmem_charge(vm->pages[i], GFP_KERNEL, 0)

so the memory is charged as a GFP_KERNEL allocation.

Define a unique GFP_VMAP_STACK to use
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO and move the comment there.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
