GlobalDOSAlloc() is fixed, non-pageable memory.  Just allocating a block, and
calling GlobalLock() will not lock the memory physically, just logically.

GlobalDOSAlloc () is to be used to pass data to DOS TSR's or provide
buffers for real mode device drivers.  Please use this sparingly.

The only other 'fixed' memory are fixed code segment DLL's.  All other
memory is assumed to be pageable (unless page locked) and moveable
logically...ie...selector doesn't change, but memory address pointed to
by the selector may.`
