The /proc/PID/task/TID/maps is a view of the virtual memory from the viewpoint
of the individual tasks of a process. In this file you will see a mapping marked
-as [stack] if that task sees it as a stack. This is a key difference from the
-content of /proc/PID/maps, where you will see all mappings that are being used
