rtl8139 includes a cpu_register_io_memory() in it's vmstate. This
is problematic if the guest undergoes hotplug operations, which can
shift io indexes between migration source and target. Add an
interface to detect this condition and add a subsection, when
necessary, to ensure we migrate to a safe target.
This resolves Juan's concerns about maintaining the migration ABI
and Michael's concerns wrt subsections. Acked by both. Please apply.
Thanks,
Alex
