If we change it, these argument becomes different as follows:
online_pages : page frame number and number of page frame number
offline_pages : memory address and memory length
I think it is ugly. So I don't want to change it. As you say, there is no
function that matches to offline_memory(). If we create export symbol
function for onlining page, in this case, the function should be named
online_memory().
