Yes. So if we want to support live migration at we need:

in src node:
1) suspend the device
2) get last_avail_idx via get_vq_state()

in the dst node:
3) set last_avail_idx via set_vq_state()
4) resume the device

So you can see, step 2 requires the device/driver not to forget the 
last_avail_idx.

The annoying thing is that, in the virtio spec there's no definition of 
device suspending. So we reuse set_status(0) right now for vq 
suspending. Then if we forget last_avail_idx in set_status(0), it will 
break the assumption of step 2).

Rethink of this, this won't work for the step 4), if we reuse the 
S_DRING_OK for resuming.

The most clean way is to invent the feature in virtio spec and implement 
that in the driver.
