Recent refactoring of cow_file_range_async means it's now possible to
request a rather large physically contiguous memory via kmalloc. The
size is dependent on the number of 512k chunks that the compressed range
consists of. David reported multiple OOM messages on such large
allocations. Fix it by switching to using kvmalloc.
