We have lots of places in the paging system where we take a VirtualAddress for the base of the physical address space mapping, and then talk about how the entirity of the address space needs to be mapped in comments over and over (e.g. here).

We could introduce a PhysicalMapping type that would wrap that VirtualAddress to draw attention that it needs to be created with care.
