The VFIO_MIGRATION event notifies users when a VFIO device transitions to a new state. One use case for this event is to prevent timeouts for RDMA connections to the migrated device. In this case, an external management application (not libvirt) consumes the events and disables the RDMA timeout mechanism when receiving the event for PRE_COPY_P2P state, which indicates that the device is non-responsive. This is essential because RDMA connections typically have very low timeouts (tens of milliseconds), which can be far below migration downtime. However, under heavy resource utilization, the device transition to PRE_COPY_P2P can take hundreds of milliseconds to complete. Since the VFIO_MIGRATION event is currently sent only after the transition completes, it arrives too late, after RDMA connections have already timed out. To address this, send an additional "prepare" event immediately before initiating the PRE_COPY_P2P transition. This guarantees timely event delivery regardless of how long the actual state transition takes.
