Hi,

Attaching patch that:

    1. Fix physical memory live migration.
        - Stop dirty memory tracking after completion of memory transfer.
        - In stage 3, updating  dirty memory bits before collecting  
remaining dirty blocks
             in order to prevent missing dirty blokes in the range of 
current_addr to phys_ram_size while
             no dirty blocks exist in the range 0 - (current_addr - 1)
     
    2. Improve migration error handling

Thanks,
Yaniv

Please split into three separate patches.

Better named qemu_file_set_error()?

Compare against negative; it could return positive numbers in the future 
even on no error.

qemu_log (in qemu-log.h)
