alloc_tag: load module tags into separate contiguous memory

When a module gets unloaded there is a possibility that some of the
allocations it made are still used and therefore the allocation tags
corresponding to these allocations are still referenced.  As such, the
memory for these tags can't be freed.  This is currently handled as an
abnormal situation and module's data section is not being unloaded.  To
handle this situation without keeping module's data in memory, allow
codetags with longer lifespan than the module to be loaded into their own
separate memory.  The in-use memory areas and gaps after module unloading
in this separate memory are tracked using maple trees.  Allocation tags
arrange their separate memory so that it is virtually contiguous and that
will allow simple allocation tag indexing later on in this patchset.  The
size of this virtually contiguous memory is set to store up to 100000
allocation tags.
