Hmm I feel like it would be good to have series like this to be at
least smoke tested somehow...

How about manually setup a very small max memslot size and test it on
x86?  IMHO we'd test with both KVMState.manual_dirty_log_protect to be
on & off to make sure to cover the log_clear() code path.  And of
course to trigger those paths we probably need migrations, but I
believe local migrations would be enough.

And since at it, I'm thinking whether we should start assert() in some
way in memory_region_allocate_system_memory() to make sure it's not
called twice from now on on any board.

Regards,
