[PULL,05/17] migration/multifd: Stop checking p->quit in multifd_send_thread

From: Fabiano Rosas <[e-mail]>

We don't need to check p->quit in the multifd_send_thread() because it
is shadowed by the 'exiting' flag. Ever since that flag was added
p->quit became obsolete as a way to stop the thread.

Since p->quit is set at multifd_send_terminate_threads() under the
p->mutex lock, the thread will only see it once it loops, so 'exiting'
will always be seen first.

Note that setting p->quit at multifd_send_terminate_threads() still
makes sense because we need a way to inform multifd_send_pages() that
the channel has stopped.
