You're only talking about moving bos, but what happens when you evict
a bo? You *must* clear COW mappings, too. Otherwise, they might still
get read-access to the evicted bo.

Note that we currently cause SIGBUS on access to mmap'd bos if they
are evicted and cannot be restored (think: user-space mapped the
VESA-FB but a real driver took over). So maybe we want two independent
helpers here?

Thanks
