Hrm... OK, that makes sense. This series is attempting to address the fact that we can't do overlays on memslots without temporarily taking away GPA ranges that we didn't mean to change. This patch is sufficient to allow evtchn delivery to work while the memslots are being frobbed, because userspace takes the vcpu_info away during the update. In that case the shadow works just fine. So yeah, if you want to handle the migration case separately then that seems reasonable.
