It is possible that a ramblock doesn't have memory that QEMU can
access, this is the case with the Xen hypervisor.

In order to avoid to trigger an assert, only call ramblock_ptr() when
needed in qemu_ram_writeback(). This should fix migration of Xen
guests that was broken with bd108a44bc29 ("migration: ram: Switch to
ram block writeback").

We could also do :
void *addr = block->host ? ramblock_ptr : NULL

Looks good to me thought.
Thanks for fixing.

This is exec.c, nothing related to migration.

Paolo, are you taking this one?
It could even go through the trivial one.

Thanks, Juan.

Hi,

I'm going to send a pull request for the xen queue with this patch.
Unless that's an issue?
