Yes, but please do that in the previous patch instead. This makes review

Why could we get a call to s390_machine_unprotect() and
- have !ms->pv
- still need to do a migrate_del_blocker()

Not clear to me.

The point I am making: This change should go into the previous patch
unless I am missing something important.
