It's more that it can call free() during the VM object's destructor. Hmm,
presumably the call to sglist_free() needs to be deferred. Note that both
the SG and device pagers free fake vm_page_t objects using uma_zfree() from
their destructors. I guess uma_zfree() will never call kmem_free() directly?
