  Log:
  Fix bugs in the vm_map_entry reservation and zalloc code.  This code is a bit
  sticky because zalloc must be able to call kmem_alloc*() in order to extend
  mapentzone to allocate a new chunk of vm_map_entry structures, and
  kmem_alloc*() *needs* two vm_map_entry structures in order to map the new
  data block into the kernel.  To avoid a chicken-and-egg recursion there must
  already be some vm_map_entry structures available for kmem_alloc*() to use.
  
  To ensure that structures are available the vm_map_entry cache maintains
  a 'reserve'.  This cache is initially populated from the vm_map_entry's
  allocated via zbootinit() in vm_map.c.  However, since this is a per-cpu
  cache there are situations where the vm_map subsystem will be used on other
  cpus before the cache can be populated on those cpus, but after the static
  zbootinit structures have all been used up.  To fix this we statically
  allocate two vm_map_entry structures for each cpu which is sufficient for
  zalloc to call kmem_alloc*() to allocate the remainder of the reserve.
  Having a lot preloaded modules seems to be able to trigger the bug.
  
  Also get rid of gd_vme_kdeficit which was a confusing methodology to
  keep track of kernel reservations.  Now we just have gd_vme_avail and
  a negative count indicates a deficit (the reserve is being dug into).
