It might help to comment that this is only true for the bulk migration
stage. If the guest is actively zeroing pages, then later stages might
encounter an all-zero page that was not all zeros in the bulk migration,
so we must transmit the page in that case.

Your code has it right, because of the ram_bulk_stage check guarding
this if body, but I did a double take when reading just your commit message.
