That is a fairly minor issue, and I'm not sure if we need to worry about
it or not really. If we did want to fix it, then the way todo it would
be to add a another condition variable to qemuDomainObjPriv,
virCond jobSignalCond.
after the qemuDomainSuspend sets the job signal, it should then wait on
the condition variable. The qemuDomainWaitForMigrationComplete() would
signal the condition variable when it had processed it.

If we did the condition variable thing I mentioned, then you'd also
need to check to see if the signal was already set, and raise an
error, since you don't want to race multiple concurrent suspend
calls on the condition variable

ACK to this patch. If you want to solve the async problem with a condition
variable it can be a add-on patch later
