Moving over the BITS_PER_LONG from bitmap.h to compiler.h. Shifting the sign bit to the highest position turns the pointer into a negative number that will remain sign extended when shifting it back down. Signed-off-by: Johannes Wikner <johannes.wikner@gmail.com>

Passing a non-canonical address to vmap would still map it, leading to #GP further down the line.
e.g.,
0xffff000000000000would map address for va=0. Let's just return NULL.
