The QEMU accesses Guest Video RAM (or any portion of Guest RAM) as
cacheable user space memory. The Guest Kernel might access Guest Video
RAM as non-cacheable to maintain coherency with video device. If this is
the case then all updates by Guest kernel to Guest Video RAM will not
be visible to QEMU.
