mm: kmsan: handle alloc failures in kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush()

As reported by Dipanjan Das, when KMSAN is used together with kernel fault
injection (or, generally, even without the latter), calls to kcalloc() or
__vmap_pages_range_noflush() may fail, leaving the metadata mappings for
the virtual mapping in an inconsistent state.  When these metadata
mappings are accessed later, the kernel crashes.

To address the problem, we return a non-zero error code from
kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush() in the case of any allocation/mapping
failure inside it, and make vmap_pages_range_noflush() return an error if
KMSAN fails to allocate the metadata.

This patch also removes KMSAN_WARN_ON() from vmap_pages_range_noflush(),
as these allocation failures are not fatal anymore.
