[Qemu-devel] [RFC for 2.9 1/1] block: add missed aio_context_acquire into blk_unref

["Denis V. Lunev" <den@openvz.org>]

Recently we expirience hang with iothreads enabled with the following
call trace:
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7fa95efebc80 (LWP 177117)):
0  ppoll () from /lib64/libc.so.6
2  qemu_poll_ns () at qemu-timer.c:313
3  aio_poll () at aio-posix.c:457
4  bdrv_flush () at block/io.c:2641
5  bdrv_close () at block.c:2143
6  bdrv_delete () at block.c:2352
7  bdrv_unref () at block.c:3429
8  blk_remove_bs () at block/block-backend.c:427
9  blk_delete () at block/block-backend.c:178

16 handle_qmp_command () at /usr/src/debug/qemu-2.6.0/monitor.c:3929

Technically bdrv_flush() stucks in
    while (rwco.ret == NOT_DONE) {
        aio_poll(aio_context, true);
    }
but rwco.ret is equal to 0 thus we have missed wakeup. Code investigation
reveals that we do not have performed aio_context_acquire() on this call
stack.

This patch adds missed lock.
