NormalPageMemoryRegion is a span of 10 pages, all of which must belong
to the same space. This requirement imposes a fragmentation issue for virtual space, which is not ideal for the current 2GB cage
configuration.
The CL fixes this by mixing pages of different spaces inside the same
NormalPageMemoryRegion. With cage it's actually not necessary anymore
to have NormalPageMemoryRegion, but we keep it to allow the code to be
uniform for cage/non-cage configurations.
There is no type confusion across spaces, since pages (even empty) are
never shared between spaces. In addition, the shared cage puts an
additional memory constraint on the GC. So, there is no security benefit
in having NormalPageMemoryRegion assigned to a single space.
