mm: vmalloc: introduce array allocation functions

[ Upstream commit a8749a35c39903120ec421ef2525acc8e0daa55c ]

Linux has dozens of occurrences of vmalloc(array_size()) and
vzalloc(array_size()).  Allow to simplify the code by providing
vmalloc_array and vcalloc, as well as the underscored variants that let
the caller specify the GFP flags.
