Kernel: Create and use USER_RANGE_CEILING

Browse source 
We had an inconsistency in valid user addresses. is_user_range() was
checking against the kernel base address, but previous changes caused
the maximum valid user addressable range to be 32 MiB below that.

This patch stops mmap(MAP_FIXED) of a range between these two bounds
from panic-ing the kernel in RangeAllocator::allocate_specific.
