When a packet is received by vhost-user, the vhost-user writes the
packet in guest memory. QEMU must then copy that page of guest memory
from source to destination; it uses a dirty bitmap for this purpose.
How does vhost-user do this? I can see this patch providing enough
support for *non*live migration. However, it cannot be enough for live
migration unless I'm missing something obvious.
