Actually, now that I come to think of it, there could be any number of
VMAs (well, up to almost 64k of them), since once you have a file
descriptor you can call mmap on it multiple times.

The more I think about it, the more I think that getting userspace to
manage the mappings with mmap() and munmap() is the right idea if it
can be made to work.
