Reserve two pages in each vm for kernel space to use for things

v2: use real memory, do not decrease vm.total

Please add a comment why GPU_ONLY flag is used. It makes sense to me now but good to have a comment for the future. Also why 2 pages are

reserved ?

GPU only because it is just for GPU write, nothing more.

About two pages, it is probably leftover from prev versions,
Jonathan if there are no objections I will use one page,
as it should be enough (IIRC, in WA description/discussion
it was mentioned that one cacheline is enough).

Andrzej
