Thanks,
Updated text to:

vhost+postcopy: Helper to send requests to source for shared pages
 
Provide a helper to be used by shared waker functions to request
shared pages from the source.
The last_rb pointer is moved into the incoming state since this
helper can update it as well as the main fault thread function.
