associated with guest physical memory is contiguous.
In this case vm_malloc() was using vm_gpa2hpa() to indirectly infer whether
or not the address range had already been allocated.
Replace this instead with an explicit API 'vm_gpa_available()' that returns
TRUE if a page is available for allocation in guest physical address space.
Includes instruction emulation for memory r/w access. This
opens the door for io-apic, local apic, hpet timer, and
legacy device emulation.
