here was bug cause if e.g.: iterative snapshots are made and
between two of them new process in process tree was created,
it can have pages which are non dirty, and won't save them
into image. but there is no parent image for it.
pages which are non soft-dirty appear if process with some pages
in non dirty state forks, child will inherit those pte's
and if child don't write to those pages, they will be still in non
soft-dirty state when next dump comes.
also this bug was not catched because of error in zdtm, look 3/3
v2: simplify, add more justification in commit message.
