When a page is used for virtual memory, it is often necessary to obtian a handler to the corresponding vm_struct, which refers to the virtually continuous area generated when invoking vmalloc. The struct page has a "mapping" field, which can be re-used, to store a pointer to the parent area. This will avoid more expensive searches. As example, the function find_vm_area is reimplemented, to take advantage of the newly introduced field.
