kmap() can fail?

It is either translated to page_address() or kmap_high() (on x86),
neither of which may return NULL. However, only kmap_atomic() is
documented as being guaranteed to return a valid value. If we could
have a similar definitive statement for kmap(), we can then cleanup
quite a bit of redundant error handling.
