As Christoph said [1], "vm_map_ram is supposed to generally behave better. So if it doesn't please report that that to the arch maintainer and linux-mm so that they can look into the issue. Having user make choices of deep down kernel internals is just a horrible interface. Please talk to maintainers of other bits of the kernel if you see issues and / or need enhancements. " Let's redo the previous conclusion and kill the vmap approach.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
