mm/vmalloc.c: avoid bogus -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning

gcc gets confused in pcpu_get_vm_areas() because there are too many
branches that affect whether 'lva' was initialized before it gets used:

  mm/vmalloc.c: In function 'pcpu_get_vm_areas':
  mm/vmalloc.c:991:4: error: 'lva' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
      insert_vmap_area_augment(lva, &va->rb_node,
      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       &free_vmap_area_root, &free_vmap_area_list);
       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  mm/vmalloc.c:916:20: note: 'lva' was declared here
    struct vmap_area *lva;
                      ^~~

Add an intialization to NULL, and check whether this has changed before
the first use.
