[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] replay: don't synchronize memory operations in replay mode |

Commit 9458a9a1df1a4c719e24512394d548c1fc7abd22 added synchronization
of vCPU and migration operations through calling run_on_cpu operation.
However, in replay mode this synchronization is unneeded, because
I/O and vCPU threads are already synchronized.
This patch disables such synchronization for record/replay mode.
