migration/postcopy: Release fd before going into 'postcopy-pause'
Logically below race could trigger with the old code: test program migration thread ------------ ---------------- wait_until('postcopy-pause') postcopy_pause() set_state('postcopy-pause') do_postcopy_recover() arm s->to_dst_file with new fd release s->to_dst_file [1] Here [1] could have released the just-installed recoverying channel. Then the migration could hang without really resuming. Instead, it should be very safe to release the fd before setting the state into 'postcopy-pause', because there's no reason for any other thread to touch it during 'postcopy-active'. Dave reported a very rare postcopy recovery hang that the migration-test program waited for the migration to complete in migrate_postcopy_complete(). We do suspect it's the same thing that we're gonna fix here. Hard to tell. However since we've noticed this, fix this irrelevant of the hang report.
