Frans Kaashoek 5eab649255 Allocate 2 pages per proc, with the top one unmapped.
The page below the last proc is unmapped by default (because the
kernel doesn't map anything right below the kernel stacks).

Frans Kaashoek 9156632701 One way of supporting a guard page below kstack: allocate kstacks in
procinit() and map them high up (below TRAMPOLNE) with an empty
mapping below each stack.  Never free a kernel stack.

Another way would be to allocate and map them dynamically, but then we
need to reload page table when switching processes in scheduler()
and/or have a kernel pagetable per proc (if we want k->stack to be the
same virtual address in each process).

One gotcha: kernel addresses are not equal to physical addresses for
stack addresses.  A stack address must be translated if we need its
physical address (e.g., virtio passes a stack address to the disk).
