Add the test script for the kernel test driver to analyse vmalloc allocator for benchmarking and stressing purposes. It is just a kernel module loader. You can specify and pass different parameters in order to investigate allocations behaviour. See "usage" output for more details. Also add basic vmalloc smoke test to the "run_vmtests" suite.

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.
