It is just not focussed on extending the existing implementation, but rather on updating old documentation, understanding and improving tests, and other activities around the memory management system. If that is of interest for you, let me know off-list and we can discuss details and a good task to get started. Certainly, memory management is quite involved, so you would need to stick longer to this task to show dome results to the community. There are no obvious easy quick wins, but checking and updating documentation to the current way the kernel works (and adding a test for that and using ftrace to see roughly what happens) could be a nice contribution in this area.
