I think this is wrong.
Remember that now migration is done in parallel with the guest running.
If the guest modifies the page while we are encoding it, we end with a
different contents in the cache and in the real page, and that causes
corruption.
This way, what we encoded is a "private copy of the page, so we don't
have that problem".
Makes sense?
