Okay my guess at the problem is that:

the CP tracks coherency but the SURFACE_BASE_UPDATE stuff might rely
on the base in the CB being the same as the texture BASE which it won't
be in the case where we are rendering to mip sublevels. Though I've no idea
how to workaround this without explicit flushes.
