Subject: [PATCH] KVM: replace large kvmalloc allocation with vmalloc

KVM's paging data structures (especially the rmaps) can be made as
large as possible by userspace simply by creating large-enough memslots.
Since commit 7661809d493b ("mm: don't allow oversized kvmalloc() calls")
these huge allocations cause a warning, assuming that they could be the
result of an integer overflow or underflow.

Since there are configurations in the wild creating a multi-TiB memslot,
and in fact it is more likely than not that these allocations end up not
using kmalloc-ed memory.  For example, the dirty bitmap for a 64 GiB
memslot would cause a 4 MiB allocation, since each 32 KiB of guest
address space corresponds to 2 bytes in the dirty bitmap.  Therefore,
just use vmalloc directly.  Introduce a new helper vcalloc to check for
overflow for extra paranoia, even though it should not be a problem here
even on 32-bit systems.
