[PATCH 1/2] lib/test_vmalloc.c: Use late_initcall() if built-in for init ordering

[Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)]

When the vmalloc test code is compiled as a built-in, use late_initcall()
instead of module_init() to defer a vmalloc test execution until most
subsystems are up and running.

It avoids interfering with components that may not yet be initialized
at module_init() time. For example, there was a recent report of memory
profiling infrastructure not being ready early enough leading to kernel
crash.

By using late_initcall() in the built-in case, we ensure the tests are
run at a safer point during a boot sequence.
