Dave, Juan: his is fairly urgent, since it's a prereq for (sanely)
fixing a migration bug.  Please let me know what I can do to expedite
review.

Sounds reasonable to me.  Again, Dave?  Juan?

I cc: them for that.

Just a comment on the patch.

Instead of introducing a new function, perhaps we can homogenize the use
of register_savevm() by always providing a SaveVMHandlers pointer and
never a couple of (SaveStateHandler, LoadStateHandler) so the
unregister_save() has never to free se->ops?

I could take this through my tree, but it would need an ACK from Dave
Gilbert or Juan Quintela.
