[PATCH v6 5/6] migration/postcopy: Release fd before going into 'postcopy-pause'

[Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>]

Logically below race could trigger with the old code:

          test program                        migration thread
          ------------                        ----------------
       wait_until('postcopy-pause')
                                          postcopy_pause()
                                            set_state('postcopy-pause')
       do_postcopy_recover()
         arm s->to_dst_file with new fd
                                            release s->to_dst_file [1]

Here [1] could have released the just-installed recoverying channel.  Then the
migration could hang without really resuming.

Instead, it should be very safe to release the fd before setting the state into
'postcopy-pause', because there's no reason for any other thread to touch it
during 'postcopy-active'.

Dave reported a very rare postcopy recovery hang that the migration-test
program waited for the migration to complete in migrate_postcopy_complete().
We do suspect it's the same thing that we're gonna fix here.  Hard to tell.
However since we've noticed this, fix this irrelevant of the hang report.
