//! Physical memory manager: a bitmap frame allocator. It hands out and reclaims
//! 4 KiB physical frames — the primitive every later memory feature (page
//! tables, the heap) is built on top of.
//!
//! This is generic kernel code: it works on the neutral `boot_handoff.MemoryRegion`
//! array the loader hands over (see docs/memory-map.md), so it carries no UEFI
//! and nothing architecture-specific beyond the 4 KiB page.
