[PATCH V9 09/46] cpr: reboot mode

[Steve Sistare <steven.sistare@oracle.com>]

Add the cpr-reboot migration mode.  Usage:
  qemu-system-$arch -migrate-mode-enable cpr-reboot ...
  migrate_set_parameter mode cpr-reboot
  migrate -d file:<filename>
  ... poll for runstate postmigrate ...
  quit

  qemu-system-$arch -migrate-mode-enable cpr-reboot ... -incoming defer
  migrate_set_parameter mode cpr-reboot
  migrate_incoming file:<filename>

In this mode, the migrate command saves state to a file, allowing one
to quit qemu, reboot to an updated kernel, and restart an updated version
of qemu.  The caller must specify a migration URI that writes to and reads
from a file.  Unlike normal mode, the use of certain local storage options
does not block the migration, but the caller must not modify guest block
devices between the quit and restart.  The guest RAM memory-backend must
be shared, and the @x-ignore-shared migration capability must be set,
to avoid saving it to the file.  Guest RAM must be non-volatile across
reboot, such as by backing it with a dax device, but this is not enforced.
The restarted qemu arguments must match those used to initially start qemu,
plus the -incoming option.
