[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/5] Revert "vl: Fix to create migration object before block backends again"

[Markus Armbruster]

This reverts commit e60483f2f8498ae08ae79ca4c6fb03a3317f5e1e.

Recent commit cda4aa9a5a0 moved block backend creation before machine
property evaluation.  This broke block backends registering migration
blockers.  Commit e60483f2f84 fixed it by moving migration object
creation before block backend creation.  This broke migration with
Xen.  Turns out we need to configure the accelerator before we create
the migration object so that Xen's accelerator compat properties get
applied.  Revert the flawed commit.  This fixes the Xen regression,
but brings back the block backend regression.  The next commits will
fix it again.
