From: Balamuruhan S <bal...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
currently we calculate expected_downtime by time taken to transfer
remaining ram, but during the time we had transferred remaining ram
few pages of ram might be redirtied and we need to retransfer it,
so it is better to consider them for calculating expected_downtime
for getting more accurate values.
Total ram to be transferred = remaining ram + (redirtied ram at the
time when the remaining
ram gets transferred)
redirtied ram = dirty_pages_rate * time taken to transfer remaining ram
redirtied ram = dirty_pages_rate * (remaining ram / bandwidth)
expected_downtime = (remaining ram + redirtied ram) / bandwidth
