[Qemu-devel] [PULL 3/3] migration: avoid segmentfault when take a snapshot of a VM which being migrated

[Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)]

From: Jia Lina <address@hidden>

During an active background migration, snapshot will trigger a
segmentfault. As snapshot clears the "current_migration" struct
and updates "to_dst_file" before it finds out that there is a
migration task, Migration accesses the null pointer in
"current_migration" struct and qemu crashes eventually.
