Not a fatal thing, but still quite inconvenient. If there are two tasks that
have anonymous private VMAs that are still not COW-ed from each other, then
it will be impossible to keep the pages shared with userfault. Thus if we do
post-copy memory migration for tasks, then these guys will have their
memory COW-ed.
Thanks,
