mm/vmalloc.c: halve the number of comparisons performed in pcpu_get_vm_areas()
In pcpu_get_vm_areas(), it checks each range is not overlapped. To make sure it is, only (N^2)/2 comparison is necessary, while current code does N^2 times. By starting from the next range, it achieves the goal and the continue could be removed. Also, - the overlap check of two ranges could be done with one clause - one typo in comment is fixed.
