    Does similar things to what kernel does - users can mmap file parts into
    address space and access them read/write. The manager will be getting
    invoked by hardware/OS kernel for cases when there is no page loaded for
    read, or when a previousle read-only page is being written to.
    
    Additionally to features provided in kernel, it support to be used to
    store back changes in transactional way (see fileh_dirty_writeout()) and
    potentially use huge pages for mappings (though this is currently TODO)
