Is this going to have any implications for what mgmt apps must
take into account when selecting valid migration target hosts ?

Historically, apps have tended to ignore any checks for phys
bits between src/dst migration hosts and hoped for the best.

Will this new behaviour introduce / change any failure scenarios
where the target host has fewer phys bits than the src host, that
mgmt apps need to be made aware of ?
