Thanks QingFeng for the fix!

Though here instead of removing the fclose(), not sure whether this is
nicer:

diff --git a/migration/savevm.c b/migration/savevm.c

Since I see we setup from_src_file but we don't really use it. If we
remove that line, we can also remove the
migration_incoming_get_current() call altogether.

Either way work for me. So my r-b stands always. :-)
