Change XBZRLE cache size in bytes (the size should be a power of 2).
If XBZRLE cache size is too small there will be many cache miss.

This mean that we can assign values like 256M, right?  i.e. no way to
pass negative values?

Shouldn't this go in the previous patche?

Don't we have a function to calculate if a value is a power of 2 in
qemu?  I guess we need one _now_.

Can't we just remove the migrate_cache_size as a new field of
migration_state.  bandwidth_limit is the example on how to do it.

Thanks, Juan.

If it needs to be a power of 2, then take an integer order instead of a byte. 
That makes the function impossible to misuse.

I will look into it. maybe there is a function like that ...
