To prepare for thread-safety on page accountings, at least below counters
need to be accessed only atomically, they are:
ram_counters.transferred
ram_counters.duplicate
ram_counters.normal
ram_counters.postcopy_bytes
There are a lot of other counters but they won't be accessed outside
migration thread, then they're still safe to be accessed without atomic

Currently, when someone (i.e., the VM) accesses discarded parts inside a
RAMBlock with a RamDiscardManager managing the corresponding mapped memory
region, postcopy will request migration of the corresponding page from the
source. The source, however, will never answer, because it refuses to
migrate such pages with undefined content ("logically unplugged"): the
pages are never dirty, and get_queued_page() will consequently skip
processing these postcopy requests.
Especially reading discarded ("logically unplugged") ranges is supposed to
work in some setups (for example with current virtio-mem), although it
barely ever happens: still, not placing a page would currently stall the
VM, as it cannot make forward progress.
Let's check the state via the RamDiscardManager (the state e.g.,
of virtio-mem is migrated during precopy) and avoid sending a request
that will never get answered. Place a fresh zero page instead to keep
the VM working. This is the same behavior that would happen
automatically without userfaultfd being active, when accessing virtual
memory regions without populated pages -- "populate on demand".
For now, there are valid cases (as documented in the virtio-mem spec) where
a VM might read discarded memory; in the future, we will disallow that.
Then, we might want to handle that case differently, e.g., warning the
user that the VM seems to be mis-behaving.

In this particular implementation the same single migration
thread is responsible for both normal linear dirty page
migration and procesing UFFD page fault events.
Processing write faults includes reading UFFD file descriptor,
finding respective RAM block and saving faulting page to
the migration stream. After page has been saved, write protection
can be removed. Since asynchronous version of qemu_put_buffer()
is expected to be used to save pages, we also have to flush
migraion stream prior to un-protecting saved memory range.
Write protection is being removed for any previously protected
memory chunk that has hit the migration stream. That's valid
for pages from linear page scan along with write fault pages.

We should not load PVM's state directly into SVM, because there maybe some
errors happen when SVM is receving data, which will break SVM.
We need to ensure receving all data before load the state into SVM. We use
an extra memory to cache these data (PVM's ram). The ram cache in secondary side
is initially the same as SVM/PVM's memory. And in the process of checkpoint,
we cache the dirty pages of PVM into this ram cache firstly, so this ram cache
always the same as PVM's memory at every checkpoint, then we flush this cached ram
to SVM after we receive all PVM's state.

Introducing new return path message MIG_RP_MSG_RECV_BITMAP to send
received bitmap of ramblock back to source.
This is the reply message of MIG_CMD_RECV_BITMAP, it contains not only
the header (including the ramblock name), and it was appended with the
whole ramblock received bitmap on the destination side.
When the source receives such a reply message (MIG_RP_MSG_RECV_BITMAP),
it parses it, convert it to the dirty bitmap by inverting the bits.
One thing to mention is that, when we send the recv bitmap, we are doing
these things in extra:
- converting the bitmap to little endian, to support when hosts are
using different endianess on src/dst.
- do proper alignment for 8 bytes, to support when hosts are using
different word size (32/64 bits) on src/dst.

Also it's necessary to solve shared memory issue in

will be transferred to the software virtual bridge
(e.g. OVS-VSWITCHD), to avoid fallocate (unmap) for
already received pages. fallocate syscall is required for
