Lorenzo Stoakes f04fd85f15 mm: correct type for vmalloc vm_flags fields ...

Several functions refer to the unfortunately named 'vm_flags' field when
referencing vmalloc flags, which happens to be the precise same name used
for VMA flags.

As a result these were erroneously changed to use the vm_flags_t type
(which currently is a typedef equivalent to unsigned long).

Currently this has no impact, but in future when vm_flags_t changes this
will result in issues, so change the type to unsigned long to account for
this.
