It is likely to crash qemu when resize the xbzrle cache
during migration. Because the xbzrle cache will be modified
by migration thread and resize thread.

Test scene
step one: set the size of xbzrle cache 1GB.
step two: migrate vm which dirty memory continuously.
step three: set the size of xbzrle cache 0.125GB.

Thanks - we was just thinking about this last night after 
we hit it.

I was thinking about doing it by just moving the resize
into the ram save loop; but I think your lock looks about right.

I wonder whether it's safe to even check the size of the XBZRLE.cache here;
it's a short race, but I think if you're unlucky and migration completes
between the NULL check and here then it would break.
Also 'migration_end' calls cache_fini, so it probably also needs to have
the lock around it.

Thanks, I will think about that, and commit a new patch to handle the issue that you refer to.
