In docs/block-replication.txt it says:
  b. replication_do_checkpoint_all()
   This interface is called after all VM state is transferred to
   Secondary QEMU. The Disk buffer will be dropped in this interface.
   The caller must hold the I/O mutex lock if it is in migration/checkpoint
   thread.

but we're making this call before the call below that actually transfers
all the state.  Which is right?

Other than that I think it's OK.
