YES!!!!!

Once there, we can also do other cleanups.

inclufde/sysemu/sysemu.h

have things not related at all.
I want to get rid of it on migration, because you know, we do zero
emulation there, but there are things like "runstate" that are defined
there.

I removed on that version lots of migration functionality that were
there, just from historical reasons, not because they belong there.

Later, Juan.
