[PATCH v8 2/6] mm/vmalloc: fix vrealloc() grow-in-place check

[Shivam Kalra via B4 Relay <devnull+shivamkalra98.zohomail.in@kernel.org>]

From: Shivam Kalra <shivamkalra98@zohomail.in>

Fix the grow-in-place check in vrealloc() to compare the requested size
against the actual physical page count (vm->nr_pages) rather than the
virtual area size (alloced_size, derived from get_vm_area_size()).

The virtual reservation size (get_vm_area_size()) does not decrease when
pages are freed during a shrink operation. Consequently, without this fix,
a subsequent grow-in-place operation after a shrink would incorrectly
succeed and attempt to access freed pages. Correcting this check is a
prerequisite for the upcoming vrealloc() shrink functionality.
