vfio: Make migration support experimental
Support for migration of vfio devices is still in flux. Developers are attempting to add support for new devices and new architectures, but none are yet readily available for validation. We have concerns whether we're transferring device resources at the right point in the migration, whether we're guaranteeing that updates during pre-copy are migrated, and whether we can provide bit-stream compatibility should any of this change. Even the question of whether devices should participate in dirty page tracking during pre-copy seems contentious. In short, migration support has not had enough soak time and it feels premature to mark it as supported. Create an experimental option such that we can continue to develop. [Retaining previous acks/reviews for a previously identical code change with different specifics in the commit log.] Reviewed-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com> Acked-by: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
