s390/uv: Rework page allocation for guest variable storage area
Alexander Gordeev reported that the allocation of pages of the
guest variable storage area via the uv_alloc_range_cb() callback
of apply_to_page_range() will cause problems as soon as s390 fully
supports lazy mmu mode.
Problem is that uv_alloc_range_cb() allocates pages with GFP_KERNEL while
preemption would be disabled. This would result in reports like this:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ./include/linux/sched/mm.h:322
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 6092, name: qemu-kvm
preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
...

Preallocate the pages and make use of vm_area_map_pages() to address this
potential future bug.
