mm/vmalloc: make set_area_direct_map HUGE_VMAP friendly

set_area_direct_map() always updates direct map alias permissions in
single page increments.

For HUGE_VMAP areas it's suboptimal.  Not only the loop in
set_area_direct_map() needlessly has more iterations (e.g times 512 on
x86), but it also causes fragmentation of the direct map that could be
avoided for the HUGE_VMAP areas populated with large pages.

All pages in an area are always of the same order: either same-order large
pages when VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP is set and all huge pages were successfully
allocated, or order-0 page when VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP is cleared or when huge
pages allocation fails and fallback path is taken.

Instead of updating the direct map permissions for every order-0 page in
an area, use the area's page_order as the loop increment and update the
large pages in one call to set_direct_map_{invalid,default}_noflush().
