Commit df4b102452 introduced global_state
section. But it only filled the state while doing migration. While
doing a savevm, we stored an empty string as state. So when we did a
loadvm, it complained that state was invalid.

Actually, there were two problems here:
- we registered global_state too late for load_vm (fixed on another
patch on the list)
- we didn't store a valid state for savevm (fixed by this patch).
