Note that a shadow variable is used instead of changing frindex to

the guest pov.
Jumping forward instead?
You mean rounding the send frindex up pre-migration, I didn't really
consider
that as it will cause us skipping processing an entry in the periodic frame
list. I guess doing that on migration isn't too bad. OTOH giving the guest
only frame accuracy like we've been doing till now also works fine...
Your choice :)
I'm looking for a way to avoid the shadow variable, but of course
without breaking migration. giving the guest only frame accuracy looks
good to me.
