Use of the live flag to gate the flush/sync calls is not a good idea. We can
'live save' to disc (checkpointing) and we can 'non-live migrate' via a
socket. So the live flag is not really an indicator of what the file
descriptor maps to (file vs. socket). Best to unconditionally try the
flush/sync and ignore errors.
