Look at 'include/linux/mm.h'.

There you can find 'struct vm_operations_struct', which provides
all the possible (and needed) hooks into the Linux-VMM.

Just take the implementation of 'mm/filemap.c' and modify it to
support your scheme of caching.

The only thing left to do is a SYSCALL-API-function. But this
isn't a real problem, is it?
