    Fix off-by-1 error in RAM migration code
    
    The code for migrating (or savevm-ing) memory pages starts off by creating
    a dirty bitmap and filling it with 1s.  Except, actually, because bit
    addresses are 0-based it fills every bit except bit 0 with 1s and puts an
    extra 1 beyond the end of the bitmap, potentially corrupting unrelated
    memory.  Oops.  This patch fixes it.
