Yes, I think this is a basic assumption that should always be true.
This series shouldn't fix anything for upstream QEMU (at least I'm not
aware of anything that needs it), so the assertion could be added even
without the other patches.
In fact, I'm currently thinking that committing just patch 1 (because
it's a nice cleanup anyway) and patch 3 (because it will let us know
when we mess up) might make sense.
