Detailed Description

A Page is not actually a single page, but rather a contiguous range of pages such that the number of pages in the range is a power of two.

It would probably be a good idea to change all uses of Page to Page_chunk or Page_range or Page_span or something that is a little more clear.

unsigned Page::address

page addr, >> by PAGE_ALIGNMENT

unsigned Page::alignment

this size = PAGE_SIZE * 2^alignment

void* Page::owner

page owner, NULL if unowned
