Hi

I am resending this series.

I hard tested this time.  x86_64 host.
Two build directories:
- x86_64 (I just build qemu-system-x86_64, kvm)
- aarch64 (I just build qemu-system-aarch64, tcg)

Everything is run as:

while true; do $command || break; done

And run this:
- x86_64:
  * make check (nit: you can't run two make checks on the same
    directory)
  * 4 ./test/qtest/migration-test
  * 2 ./test/qtest/migration-test -p ./tests/qtest/migration-test -p /x86_64/migration/multifd/tcp/plain/cancel
  * 2 ./test/qtest/migration-test -p ./tests/qtest/migration-test -p /x86_64/migration/ignore_shared

- aarch64:
  The same with s/x86_64/aarch64/

And left it running for 6 hours.  No errors.
Machine has enough RAM for running this (128GB) and 18 cores (intel
i9900K).
Load of the machine while running this tests is around 50 (I really hope
that our CI hosts have less load).

A run master with the same configuration.  In less than 10 minutes I get
the dreaded:

# starting QEMU: exec ./qemu-system-aarch64 -qtest unix:/tmp/qtest-3264370.sock -qtest-log /dev/null -chardev socket,path=/tmp/qtest-3264370.qmp,id=char0 -mon chardev=char0,mode=control -display none -accel kvm -accel tcg -machine virt,gic-version=max -name target,debug-threads=on -m 150M -serial file:/tmp/migration-test-1A1461/dest_serial -incoming defer -cpu max -kernel /tmp/migration-test-1A1461/bootsect    -accel qtest
Broken pipe
../../../../../mnt/code/qemu/multifd/tests/qtest/libqtest.c:195: kill_qemu() detected QEMU death from signal 6 (Aborted) (core dumped)
Aborted (core dumped)
$

On multifd+cancel.

I have no been able to ever get ignore_shared to fail on my machine.
But I didn't tested aarch64 TCG in the past so hard, and in x86_64 it
has always worked for me.

Later, Juan.
