I need to set host side status of interface. Without this live migration
with dinamic routing software (ospf with quagga or bird) bring packet
drops. Because on dest interface in up state and kernel try to forward
packets to it, but guest  CPU is not running. Also host side status needed
for easy blackhole traffic to guest ip.
