* Why are we memsetting zero pages on the receive side? What I'm
trying to get at is, if destination memory is zero-initialised at the
beginning of migration, we might be able to do away with this
memset(3) call and this optimisation altogether. All zero page entries
could point to the same zero page as well, if we don't want to
preallocate all zero pages at start.
Thank you.
