/**
* @file
* @brief An implementation of
* [LRU
* Cache](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_replacement_policies#Least_recently_used_(LRU)).
* Lru is a part of cache algorithms (also frequently called cache replacement
* algorithms or cache replacement policies).
*
* ### Logic
* * Discards the least recently used items first.
* * This algorithm requires keeping track of what was used when, which is
* expensive if one wants to make sure the algorithm always discards the least
* recently used item.
* * General implementations of this technique require keeping "age bits"
* for cache-lines and track the "Least Recently Used" cache-line based on
* age-bits.
* * In such an implementation, every time a cache-line is used, the age of
* all other cache-lines changes
*
* ### Algorithm explanation
* For a cache of page frame x:
* * Check if the page is present in cache.
* * If not present, then check is the cache is full or not:
* * If the cache is full, REMOVE the last element from the cache.
* * If the element is present in cache, then shift that element to
* first position in cache from its original position.
* * This way you can keep the least recently used elements in the
* last and most recently used in front of the cache.
*
* Every time a requested page is not found in cache, that is a miss or page
* fault, and if the page is present in cache, then its a hit.
*
* ## Data Structure used
* * In the algorithm below we used two different data structure, one is linked
* list and other one is a hash map
* * The linked list is used to contain the pages and the hash map contains the
* pages and their address.
* * Every time a new page is requested, we first check in the hash map if the
* page is present or not.
* * If not present, and the cache is full, we simply delete the last entry in
* the cache.
* * If present, we shift that page from its current location to beginning of
* the cache and update the address in hash map for that page.
