When the AHCI HBA device is migrated, all of the information that led to the request being created is stored in the AHCIDevice structures, except for pointers into guest data where return information needs to be stored.
The "cur_cmd" field is usually responsible for this. To rebuild the cur_cmd pointer post-migration, we can utilize the busy_slot index to figure out where the command header we are still processing is. This allows a machine in a halted state from rerror=stop or werror=stop to be migrated and resume operations without issue.
