Yes, that's only a workaround. I guess it has been there for quite a
while, maybe at the time qemu doesn't send RESET_OWNER message.

That's something new, though I have plan to use them instead, we still
need to make sure our code work with old qemu, without ENABLE/DISABLE
messages.

And I will think more while enabling live migration: I should have
more time to address issues like this at that time.

Indeed. And we will try to address them bit by bit in future.
