Do you mean "we can't migrate a TCG A15" ? That would be a problem.
Or do you mean "we can't migrate a KVM A15" ? That's entirely
expected when we drop support for KVM A15 :-)
Or do you mean "migration from KVM to TCG doesn't work?" That's
a pre-existing thing I don't expect to work (we don't put anything
in to stop it working, but I'm pretty sure there will be a bunch
of things that mean it doesn't in practice work.)

We're definitely not reverting 82bf7ae84ce if we can avoid it...
