Is everything between VMALLOC_END and 0xfeffffff guaranteed to come
from iotable_init? If so, we could perhaps turn it into a variable
that gets initialized to 0xfeffffff and decreased by iotable_init
to be just below the lowest address that has actually been mapped.

Obviously, anything that derives values from VMALLOC_END at compile
time would need to change, too.
