Although it's rare to happen in live migration, when the head of a
byte stream contains 0x05 which is the marker of subsection, the
loader gets corrupted because vmstate_subsection_load() continues even
the device doesn't require it.  This patch adds a checker whether
subsection is needed, and skips following routines if not needed.

This only fixes "partially" the problem :(

I agree with bonzini that it is better than what we had until we get the
time to try a better aproach.  I was thinking about only allowing
subsections at the top level, but that still don't improve things, would
have to think more about the problem.
