ram_discard_range() unmap page for specific range. To be specific, this clears related page table entries so that userfault would be triggered. But this step is not necessary at the very beginning. ram_postcopy_incoming_init() is called when destination gets ADVISE command. ADVISE command is sent when migration thread just starts, which implies destination is not running yet. This means no page fault happened and memory region's page tables entries are empty. This patch removes the discard at the beginning.
