A VM can be a nested page table, and can be used in conjunction with VM*
operations to enter a VM etc. Support for VT/SVM is built using VMs to
cover the extra functionality required. Besides that memory can be
mapped into a VM as it can be mapped into a normal task. Specifically a
VM is derived from a task.
