mm: only allow page table mappings for built-in zsmalloc
This allows to unexport map_vm_area and unmap_kernel_range, which are rather deep internal and should not be available to modules, as they for example allow fine grained control of mapping permissions, and also allow splitting the setup of a vmalloc area and the actual mapping and thus expose vmalloc internals. zsmalloc is typically built-in and continues to work (just like the percpu-vm code using a similar patter), while modular zsmalloc also continues to work, but must use copies.

By default, zsmalloc uses a copy-based object mapping method to
access allocations that span two pages. However, if a particular
