Actually, no it is not. The broken logic wouldn't help, but the root
cause was indeed a race condition that Fabiano points out. 

We are issuing the 'cont' before tgt QEMU has finished reading data
from the source.  The solution is actually quite simple - we must
call 'query-migrate' on dst to check its status. ie the code needs
to be:

 wait_for_migration_complete(from);
 wait_for_migration_complete(to);
 qtest_qmp_assert_success(to, "{ 'execute' : 'cont'}");

this matches what libvirt does, and libvirt has a comment saying
it was not permitted to issue 'cont' before 'query-migrate' on
the dst indicated completion.

With regards,
Daniel
