Vmalloc area pagetables are demand mapped into per-process pgdirs. So it's
invalid for vunmap_pte_range() to be relying solely on update_va_mapping().
Either it should use some other method, or at least have some other method
as a fallback.

This is easily fixed. I guess I'll audit other uses of update_va_mapping()
at the same time.
