When the host page is a huge page and something is sent in the
current iteration, migration_rate_limit() should be executed.
If not, it can be omitted.

Sorry I'm still not a fan of this - I'd even prefer calling that once more just
to make sure it won't be forgotten to be called..  Not to say it's merely a noop.

I'll leave this to Dave..  Maybe I'm too harsh! :)
