I know you didn't even compile this version.

More importantly, conceptually it doesn't work.  All kinds of pages
get added to bios, and not all of them are file/anon pages.  That
PageWorkingset bit might well be reused for other purposes.  Only
the caller knows if this is file/anon memory.  You can't do this here.
