QEMU fails migration with following error:
qemu-system-x86_64: Missing section footer for i2c_bus
qemu-system-x86_64: load of migration failed: Invalid argument
when migrating from:
qemu-system-x86_64-v2.6.0 -m 256M rhel72.img -M pc-i440fx-2.6
to
qemu-system-x86_64-v2.7.0-rc0 -m 256M rhel72.img -M pc-i440fx-2.6
Regression is added by commit 2293c27f (i2c: implement broadcast write)
Fix it by dropping 'broadcast' VMState introduced by 2293c27f and
reuse broadcast 0x00 address as broadcast flag in bus->saved_address.
Then if there were ongoing broadcast at migration time, set
bus->saved_address to it and at i2c_slave_post_load() time check
for it instead of transfering and using 'broadcast' VMState.
As result of reusing existing saved_address VMState, no compat
glue will be needed to keep forward/backward compatiblity. which
makes fix much less intrusive.
