This looks like it wants to be:

#define STACK_PAGE_COUNT (PAGE_ALIGN(THREAD_SIZE)/PAGE_SIZE)

(There are reasons to want THREAD_SIZE < PAGE_SIZE having to do with
elevating PAGE_SIZE as opposed to shrinking THREAD_SIZE outright.)

It looks like kmap_types.h should inherits PAGE_* from processor.h
which in turn should inherit them from page.h

Did the headers barf on this or something? I can't imagine you didn't
think of it already.
