  Log:
  Avoid a recursive kernel fault and subsequent double fault if the VM fault
  code gets a KVM map_entry with a NULL object.  Such entries exist in system
  maps managed directly by the kernel, such as the buffer cache and kernel_map.
  Instead, we check for the condition and panic immediately.  Programs which
  access /dev/[k]mem can hit this race/failure.
