[PULL 12/12] migration: fix multifd_send_pages() next channel


From: Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)
Subject: [PULL 12/12] migration: fix multifd_send_pages() next channel
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2020 19:37:33 +0100

From: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>

multifd_send_pages() loops around the available channels,
the next channel to use between two calls to multifd_send_pages() is stored
inside a local static variable, next_channel.

It works well, except if the number of channels decreases between two calls
to multifd_send_pages(). In this case, the loop can try to access the
data of a channel that doesn't exist anymore.

The problem can be triggered if we start a migration with a given number of
channels and then we cancel the migration to restart it with a lower number.
This ends generally with an error like:
qemu-system-ppc64: .../util/qemu-thread-posix.c:77: qemu_mutex_lock_impl: 
Assertion `mutex->initialized' failed.

This patch fixes the error by capping next_channel with the current number
of channels before using it.
