Migration code resizes ram blocks when synchronizing the ram state. See
qemu_ram_resize() in ram_load_precopy()
That happens on incoming migration while the vm is stopped.

But that guest got the chance to run for a bit and eventually reboot
AFAIK. Also, there are other data races possible when used_length
suddenly changes, this is just the most obvious one where things will;
get screwed up.
