uma: Avoid depleting keg reserves when filling a bucket

Description

uma: Avoid depleting keg reserves when filling a bucket

zone_import() fetches a free or partially free slab from the keg and
then uses its items to populate an array, typically filling a bucket.
If a single allocation causes the keg to drop below its minimum reserve,
the inner loop ends. However, if the bucket is still not full and
M_USE_RESERVE is specified, the outer loop will continue to fetch items
from the keg.

If M_USE_RESERVE is specified and the number of free items is below the
reserved limit, we should return only a single item. Otherwise, if the
bucket size is larger than the reserve, all of the reserved items may
end up in a single per-CPU bucket, invisible to other CPUs.
