Commit Message

RDMA will pin all guest memory (as documented in docs/rdma.txt). We want
to disable RAM block discards - however, to keep it simple use
ram_block_discard_is_required() instead of inhibiting.

Note: It is not sufficient to limit disabling to pin_all. Even when only
conditionally pinning 1 MB chunks, as soon as one page within such a
chunk was discarded and one page not, the discarded pages will be pinned
as well.
