Live migration is sometimes performed automatically by management tools,
which have no idea (nor do they care) what the guest is doing.

Yes.

It's still 300ms extra time, with a 900MB footprint.
btw, a DMA interface which blocks the guest and/or qemu for 115ms is not
something we want to introduce to qemu. dma is hard, doing something
simple means it won't work very well.
