Subject[PATCH next] vt: fix a warning when kmalloc alloc large memory
Date
If the memory size that use kmalloc() to allocate exceed MAX_ORDER pages,
it will hit the WARN_ON_ONCE(!(gfp_mask & __GFP_NOWARN)), so add memory
allocation flag __GFP_NOWARN to silence a warning, othervise, it will
cause panic if panic_on_warn is enable.

The calltrace is:

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6298 at mm/page_alloc.c:4713 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x339/0x7d0 mm/page_alloc.c:4713
