[PATCH 10/19] migration: Yield bitmap_mutex properly when sending/sleeping

[Juan Quintela <quintela@redhat.com>]

From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>

Don't take the bitmap mutex when sending pages, or when being throttled by
migration_rate_limit() (which is a bit tricky to call it here in ram code,
but seems still helpful).

It prepares for the possibility of concurrently sending pages in >1 threads
using the function ram_save_host_page() because all threads may need the
bitmap_mutex to operate on bitmaps, so that either sendmsg() or any kind of
qemu_sem_wait() blocking for one thread will not block the other from
progressing.
