Because DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION is handled via the
log_global_start/log_global_stop mechanism.  The functions I'm patching
here are called only through region_add and region_del, so they do not
care about DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION.

The plan is to remove this special case:

but it is not trivial so it's better done in a different patch series.
