The major parts of VFIO migration are supported today in QEMU. This
includes basic VFIO migration, device dirty page tracking and precopy
support.
Thus, at this point in time, it seems appropriate to make VFIO migration
non-experimental: remove the x prefix from enable_migration property,
change it to ON_OFF_AUTO and let the default value be AUTO.
In addition, make the following adjustments:
1. When enable_migration is ON and migration is not supported, fail VFIO
device realization.
2. When enable_migration is AUTO (i.e., not explicitly enabled), require
device dirty tracking support. This is because device dirty tracking
is currently the only method to do dirty page tracking, which is
essential for migrating in a reasonable downtime. Setting
enable_migration to ON will not require device dirty tracking.
3. Make migration error and blocker messages more elaborate.
4. Remove error prints in vfio_migration_query_flags().
5. Rename trace_vfio_migration_probe() to
trace_vfio_migration_realize().

We should rework the return value of most of the routines called by
vfio_migration_realize() and simply use a bool. I think Zhenzhong is
working it.
Zhenzhong,
When you resend v4 of the "VFIO migration related refactor and bug fix"
series, please rebase on this patch since it should be merged.
