Well, it still needs to be updated, no?

The QEMU changes need to be discussed on qemu-devel, a link to a git
tree with work in progress only goes so far.

(From my quick look there, this needs to have any headers changes split
out into a separate patch. The changes in migration.c are hard to
review; is there any chance to split the error path cleanups from the
interface changes?)
