... and not safe if the length crosses a page boundary. I don't want to
see new code emerge that does kvmalloc(PAGE_SIZE * 2, ...); kvmem_to_page()
and have it randomly crash when kvmalloc happens to fall back to vmalloc()
under heavy memory pressure.
Also, people are going to start using this for stack addresses. Perhaps
we should have a debug option to guard against them doing that.
