mm/vmalloc.c: don't dereference possible NULL pointer in __vunmap()

commit 6ade2032 upstream.

find_vmap_area() can return a NULL pointer and we're going to
dereference it without checking it first.  Use the existing
find_vm_area() function which does exactly what we want and checks for
the NULL pointer.
