This check can be dropped.

IMHO we don't need to loop the bitmap twice; we can still do it in above if
blocks when looping.

Note that this variable (DirtyRateDirtyPages) should either be protected by a
lock or updated using qatomic_add().  I think it's easier we just read/write it
with BQL as it should be required for cpu_physical_memory_set_dirty_lebitmap()
callers.  So looks okay.

The name cpu_physical_memory_dirtyrate_reset_protect() didn't really help
anything.. I'd suggest we drop this helper and call it directly in the next
patch.

CamelCase is normally used for type definitions in QEMU.  Maybe define it as
"total_dirty_pages"?  Then we never reset it to zero, but only increase it.

Also let's comment above it: it's protected by BQL.  So far it should be enough.

Thanks,
