instead of malloc(). The SWAP objects are automagically freed when there are no
more consumers. This greatly simplifies the mmap logic inside CUSE(3) in the
kernel. This change fixes an issue where mmapped memory can accumulate and never
get freed, if many different mmap sizes are needed over time. Further this
change fixes memory leaks when the CUSE(3) kernel module is unloaded.
While at it make sure the CUSE_ALLOC_PAGES_MAX limit is treated as an exclusive
limit. CUSE(3) memory maps must be less than CUSE_ALLOC_PAGES_MAX number of pages.
