From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com>

Use the recently added migration flag to hold whether
each RAMBlock has the UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE capability, use it
when it's available.

This allows the use of postcopy on tmpfs as well as hugepage
backed files.

Shall we use atomic_or() inside qemu_ram_set_migration_flags()? Then
no need to fetch, and we'll be thread safe as well?

IIUC, _UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE is not supported on huge pages. If so, would
here worth a comment?

I've changed it to a simple |=  in the new qemu_ram_set_uf_zeroable
that works on the rb->flags field.
