Handle overflow in calculating max kmem size.

Description

Handle overflow in calculating max kmem size.

vm_kmem_size is u_long, and it might be not capable of holding page
count times PAGE_SIZE, even when scaled down by VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE. As
bde reported, 12G PAE config ends up with zero for kmem size.

Explicitly check for overflow and clamp kmem size at vm_kmem_size_max.
If we end up at zero size because VM_KMEM_SIZE_MAX is not defined,
panic with clear explanation rather then failing in a way which is
hard to relate.
