shmem_pin_map somewhat awkwardly reimplements vmap using alloc_vm_area and manual pte setup. The only practical difference is that alloc_vm_area prefeaults the vmalloc area PTEs, which doesn't seem to be required here (and could be added to vmap using a flag if actually required). Switch to use vmap, and use vfree to free both the vmalloc mapping and the page array, as well as dropping the references to each page.

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.
