vfio/migration: Skip log_sync during migration SETUP state
Currently, VFIO log_sync can be issued while migration is in SETUP state. However, doing this log_sync is at best redundant and at worst can fail. Redundant -- all RAM is marked dirty in migration SETUP state and is transferred only after migration is set to ACTIVE state, so doing log_sync during migration SETUP is pointless. Can fail -- there is a time window, between setting migration state to SETUP and starting dirty tracking by RAM save_live_setup handler, during which dirty tracking is still not started. Any VFIO log_sync call that is issued during this time window will fail. For example, this error can be triggered by migrating a VM when a GUI is active, which constantly calls log_sync. Fix it by skipping VFIO log_sync while migration is in SETUP state.
