Recently, a bug related to multiple thread compression feature for
live migration is reported. The destination side will be blocked
during live migration if there are heavy workload in host and
memory intensive workload in guest, this is most likely to happen
when there is one decompression thread.
Some parts of the decompression code are incorrect:
1. The main thread receives data from source side will enter a busy
loop to wait for a free decompression thread.
2. A lock is needed to protect the decomp_param[idx]->start, because
it is checked in the main thread and is updated in the decompression
thread.
Fix these two issues by following the code pattern for compression.
