This is also only used on the save side.

I am not sure start_of_stream() wants to be inside the loop.  For PV
guests, it sends the X86_PV_INFO which is only expected to be sent
once.  The X86_PV_P2M_FRAMES record is deliberately safe to send
multiple times (in the hope that someone might evenutally fix the
ballooning issues), but is a waste of time to send like this, as its
content wont be changing.

Can postcopy() fail?
