Some allocations done by KVM are temporary, they are created as result
of program actions, but can't exists for arbitrary long times.

They should have been GFP_TEMPORARY (rip!).

OTOH, kvm-nx-lpage-recovery and kvm-pit kernel threads exist for as long
as VM exists but their task_struct memory is not accounted.
This is story for another day.
