x86/mm/64: Enable KASLR for vmemmap memory region

Add vmemmap in the list of randomized memory regions.

The vmemmap region holds a representation of the physical memory (through
a struct page array). An attacker could use this region to disclose the
kernel memory layout (walking the page linked list).
