[PATCH RFC 13/13] migration: Send requested page directly in rp-return thread

[Peter Xu]

With all the facilities ready, send the requested page directly in the
rp-return thread rather than queuing it in the request queue, if and only
if postcopy preempt is enabled.  It can achieve so because it uses separate
channel for sending urgent pages.  The only shared data is bitmap and it's
protected by the bitmap_mutex.
