vhost_log_put() is called to decomission the dirty log between qemu and
a vhost device when stopping the device. Such a call can happen from
migration_completion().

Present code sets dev->log_size to zero too early in vhost_log_put(),
causing the sync check to always return false. As a consequence, the
last pass on the dirty bitmap never happens at the end of migration.

If a vhost device was busy (writing to guest memory) until the last
moments before vhost_virtqueue_stop(), this error will result in guest
memory corruption (at least) following migrations.
