We could get a migration request when we have no active flows; or at least none that we need or are able to migrate. In this case after sending or receiving the number of flows we continue to step through various lists. In the target case, this could include communication with passt-repair. If passt-repair wasn't started that could cause further errors, but of course they shouldn't matter if we have nothing to repair. Make it more obvious that there's nothing to do and avoid such errors by short-circuiting flow_migrate_{source,target}() if there are no migratable flows.
