Directly return the __vmalloc() result in {svm,vmx}_vm_alloc() to pave
the way for handling VM alloc/free in common x86 code, and to obviate
the need to check the result of __vmalloc() in vendor specific code.
Add a build-time assertion to ensure each structs' "kvm" field stays at
offset 0, which allows interpreting a "struct kvm_{svm,vmx}" as a
"struct kvm".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
