mm/vmalloc: track which page-table levels were modified

Track at which levels in the page-table entries were modified by
vmap/vunmap.

After the page-table has been modified, use that information do decide
whether the new arch_sync_kernel_mappings() needs to be called.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: map_kernel_range_noflush() needs the arch_sync_kernel_mappings() call]
