The 'state' will *always* be set in the above flow.

As we are in the source side of the migration we have a valid 
saving_migf (see line 1145 above), as we pass in a non NULL pointer for 
the state, it will be always filled inside.

  We not just make mlx5vf_disable_fds()
> return an error code?

mlx5vf_disable_fd() is a cleanup function that can't fail.

It just holds/sets the state of the migf following the completion of the 
asynchronous SAVE command that was issued in line 1158.

So, it's a false alarm.

Thanks,
Yishai
