Upon receiving such sync request, each secondary process will notify the upper layers of hotplugged memory (and will call all locally registered event callbacks). In the end we'll end up with memory event callbacks fired in all the processes except the primary, which is a bug. This gets critical if memory is hotplugged while a VFIO device is attached, as the VFIO memory registration - which is done from a memory event callback present in the primary process only - is never called. After this patch, a primary process fires memory event callbacks before secondary processes start their synchronizations - both for hotplug and hotremove.
