[Medium] Could MIN_MEM_AVAIL include headroom above the two mappings? The
worker keeps both mappings resident simultaneously, so a host with exactly
80 MiB available passes the framework check but still needs memory for page
tables and other process and kernel allocations. The worker can be OOM-killed
while touching the mappings, producing a timeout or TBROK instead of testing
charge accounting.

[Medium] Could this also read and verify group_a/memory.current after the
migration? The stated invariant is that existing charges remain pinned to
group_a, but this checks only that group_b did not gain them. A regression
that drops those charges during migration leaves group_b within the allowed
range and reports TPASS despite violating the invariant.

Verdict - Needs revision
