s/cache_size/cache-size/, and so on throughout this struct (it is new,
so it should use '-' instead of '_'); especially since you already made
that change in the JSON itself.

Why are you marking four of the five fields optional here, but not in
the text above?  I don't think any of them should be optional.

Now _this_ field is indeed optional - it should appear in the output
only when xbzrle is enabled.  You may want to mention that in the
description (just like the previous field mentions that it was only
available for a block migration).

Naming mismatch; you named it 'xbzrle-cache' above.

Just so I'm clear, is xbzrle-bytes is the number of compressed bytes
sent over the wire, or the number of uncompressed bytes?  Likewise, at
the top level, is 'total' the number of bytes sent over the wire, or the
number of bytes after decompression?

That is, if I compare this field against 'total', which field will
always be bigger?  Knowing this will let me compute my percentage of
savings due to compressed pages.

Spurious whitespace change.
