Would it really be that complex? Not having an extra QEMUFile op
perhaps balances that complexity (and the complexity remains hidden in
rdma.c, which is an advantage).
You could alternatively drain every N megabytes sent, or something like
that. But a partial drain would help obeying the maximum downtime
limitations.
