    nvmm: Port to DragonFly #18: kernel memory allocation
    
    Use kmem_alloc() and kmem_free() to implement uvm_km_alloc() and
    uvm_km_free() as they're used in svm_vcpu_create() and vmx_vcpu_create().
    However, our kmem_alloc() may return 0 (i.e., allocation failure), so
    need an extra check in the caller functions.
    
    Since we've defined 'kmem_alloc' and 'kmem_free' macros to adapt
    NetBSD's functions to use our kmalloc() and kfree().  Therefore, extra
    parentheses are added around 'kmem_alloc' and 'kmem_free' to avoid macro
    expansion, so the original functions would be called.
    
    In addition, change the 'kmem_free()' to 'uvm_km_free()' in
    vmx_vcpu_create(), aligning with the invocation pattern as well as
    the use case in svm_vcpu_create().
