Is it worth keeping a helper function here to abstract out future 
changes? E.g. "xe_migrate_lrc(ctx) { return ctx->q->lrc[0] };". Using 
"q->lrc[0]" everywhere seems very like magic number usage. It is not 
obvious why that is correct given the very generic naming.

Should this be 'migrate_q' or some such to identify what its purpose is? 
Just calling it 'q' is very generic and open to use by other things 
(accidentally or deliberately).
