We currently map invalid and reserved pages, such as often occur from
mapping MMIO regions of a VM through the IOMMU, using single pages.
There's really no reason we can't instead follow the methodology we
use for normal pages and find the largest possible physically
contiguous chunk for mapping.  The only difference is that we don't
do locked memory accounting for these since they're not back by RAM.

In most applications this will be a very minor improvement, but when
graphics and GPGPU devices are in play, MMIO BARs become non-trivial.
