[PULL,31/42] migration: Synchronize all CPU states only for non-iterable dump

Commit Message

From: Peter Xu <[e-mail]>

Do one shot cpu sync at qemu_savevm_state_complete_precopy_non_iterable(),
instead of coding it separately in two places.

Note that in the context of qemu_savevm_state_complete_precopy(), this
patch is also an optimization for postcopy path, in that we can avoid sync
cpu twice during switchover: before this patch, postcopy_start() invokes
twice on qemu_savevm_state_complete_precopy(), each of them will try to
sync CPU info.  In reality, only one of them would be enough.

For background snapshot, there's no intended functional change.
