[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 1/1] vmstate: draft fix for failed iotests case 68 and 91

[QingFeng Hao]

I am not very clear about the logic in vmstate.c, but from its context in
vmstate_save_state, it seems size should not be 0, otherwise the followed
for loop will keep working on the same element. So I just add a simple
check to pass that case, not sure if it's right but it can pass iotest
case 68 and 91 now.

The iotest's failed output is:
068 1s ... - output mismatch (see 068.out.bad)
