[Qemu-ppc] [PATCH V3] spapr: Fix stale HTAB during live migration

[Samuel Mendoza-Jonas]

If a guest reboots during a running migration, changes to the
hash page table are not necessarily updated on the destination.
Opening a new file descriptor to the HTAB forces the migration
handler to resend the entire table.

Changes in v3: Pointed out by David, htab_save_iterate could
        potentially try to read before htab_fd is open again.
        Leave opening the fd to the functions trying to read.
Changes in v2: Forgot check on kvmppc_get_htab_fd return value
