I think that's not nasty enough. If the mappings aren't updated, then
you'll still see the the same old pages with the right contents. You
need to change them somehow after they migrated (with vram eviction
that happens automatically since there'll b another object in the same
spot, for system memory I think you need the shrinker to kick in and
free the pages first). Easiest probably to wait for a key press so you
can appreciate the color, then write a different color (full screen)
when the buffer is in vram.

You'd need to check the ptes themselves. Which I think not even proc
shows by default (only the file that's supposed to be mapped). But
good to confirm that the buffer moved at least.
