I agree a separate class is good and we shouldn't change this bit.

My point is about this:

> Process::DoGetMemoryRegionInfo,

I think `Process::GetMemoryRegionInfo` should query the cache, if it's there 
just return.
If it's not there, call the virtual `DoGetMemoryRegion`, then call 
`MemoryRegionInfoCache::AddRegion`.

The implications of the suggested design are:

1. No more circular dependency between process and the cache
2. No more failure state in `GetMemoryRegionInfo`. It's either in the cache or 
it is not, no error possible.
