It's not a terrible idea.  The good news is that from a testing
perspective, if anyone were to add a VIR_MIGRATE_FOO flag,
and put it into MigratePrepare and not MigratePerform, their
testing would fail and they would have to investigate.  On the
other hand, it's much better to let them do things correctly
from the get-go.  I'll look at making a more generic macro for this.
