 * The stack size and the number of slots are defined by the CONFIG_VMM_STACK_SIZE, and
 * CONFIG_VMM_STACK_BASE parameters.
 * Each slot can contain one user stack vseg. The first 4 Kbytes page in the slot is not
 * mapped to detect stack overflow.
 * In this implementation, the slot index is defined by the user thead LTID.
 * All allocated stacks are registered in a bitmap defining the STACK zone state: 
 * - The allocator checks that the requested slot has not been already allocated, and set the
 *   corresponding bit in the bitmap.
 * - The de-allocator function reset the corresponding bit in the bitmap.

 * This structure defines the Virtual Memory Manager for a given process in a given cluster.
 * This local VMM implements four main services:
 * 1) It contains the local copy of vseg list (VSL), only complete in referrence.
 * 2) It contains the local copy of the generic page table (GPT), only complete in reference.
 * 3) The stack manager dynamically allocates virtual memory space for the STACK vsegs.
 * 4) The mmap manager dynamically allocates virtual memory for the (FILE/ANON/REMOTE) vsegs.
 ******************************************************a**************************************
 * Implementation notes:
 * 1. In most clusters, the VSL and GPT are only partial copies of the reference VSL and GPT
 *    structures, stored in the reference cluster.
 * 2. The VSL contains only local vsegs, but it is implemented as an xlist, and protected by
 *    a remote_rwlock, because it can be accessed by a thread running in a remote cluster.
 *    An exemple is the vmm_fork_copy() function.
 * 3. The GPT in the reference cluster can be directly accessed by remote threads to handle
 *    false page-fault (page is mapped in the reference GPT, but the PTE copy is missing
 *    in the local GPT). As each PTE can be protected by a specific GPT_LOCKED attribute
 *    for exclusive access, it is NOT protected by a global lock.
