Because of commit 11808bb0c422, which remove some condition checks
of 'f->ops->writev_buffer', 'qemu_put_qemu_file' should be enhanced
to clear the 'f_src->iovcnt', or 'f_src->iovcnt' may exceed the
MAX_IOV_SIZE which will break live migration. This should be fixed.

If you're just using the buf[] in the src, how does it end up incrementing
the iovcnt?

'qemu_put_be32' is used to put some data to  an allocated 'f_src'. Before the 11808bb0c422, this operation
won't increase the 'f_src->iovcnt', there is no issue.
Commit 11808bb0c422 remove the checking of 'f->ops->writev_buffer',
now 'qemu_put_be32' will increase 'f_src->iovcnt' and set 'f_src->iov []', once the 'f_src->iovcnt' reach to
MAX_IOV_SIZE, 'qemu_fflush' will be trigged. Beacause 'f_src' is not writeable, 'qemu_fflsh' will return
without wrapping around 'f_src->iovcnt' , the following 'qemu_put_be32' on 'f_src' will increase 'f_src->iovcnt'
and make it exceed MAX_IOV_SIZE, then set 'f_src->iov[]' will corrupt memory.

OK, thanks

Amit, Peter: I think this is one for 2.7 because I think that's a regression
given that the 11808bb0c422 referenced is after 2.6.
