Doing a live migration of a HVM domU from staging-4.5 with its included
qemu-xen to staging-4.7 with qemu-xen from qemu.org (either master or
2.6.0) fails:

# cat /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-fv-x64-sles12sp1-clean--incoming.log
char device redirected to /dev/pts/4 (label serial0)

qemu-system-i386: Expected vmdescription section, but got 0


'xl vnc domU' on the receiver side just shows "guest has not initialized
display yet". For some reason the domU is still alive, 'vmstat 1' via
ssh keeps running.

'xl shutdown domU' fails. It looks like the guest OS shuts down, the ssh
connection gets terminated, but the domU becomes busy according to 'xl
top', and never shuts down.

domU.cfg looks like this:
name="fv-x64-sles12sp1-clean"
memory=256
serial="pty"
builder="hvm"
boot="cd"
disk=[
        'file:/disk0.raw,hda,w',
        'file:/DVD1.iso,hdc:cdrom,r',
]
vif=[
        'bridge=br0'
]
keymap="de"
vfb = [
        'type=vnc,vncunused=1,keymap=de'
]

usb=1
usbdevice='tablet'
device_model_override="/root/dm.sh"


The override is to make sure to use qemu-xen as included in xen-4.5 on
the sending side and qemu.git on the receiving side.
