v2:
 * Based off Igor's "-object/object-add support custom location and 2nd stage
   initialization" series
 * Dropped dedicated -iothread option in favor of -object
 * Avoid re-acquiring rfifo in iothread_run() [mdroth]

v3:
 * Fixed "Reliquinish" typo [fam]
 * Rebased onto qemu.git/master which now has Igor's -object improvements

v4:
 * Rename qdev property to virtio-blk-pci,x-iothread= since we will switch to
   QOM links once object_property_add_link() is fixed [bonzini]

This series moves the event loop thread out of dataplane code.  It makes
-object iothread,id=foo a separate concept so several devices can be bound to
same iothread.

Syntax:

  qemu -object iothread,id=iothread0 \
       -device virtio-blk-pci,x-iothread=iothread0,x-data-plane=on,...

For backwards-compatibility the iothread= parameter can be omitted.  A
per-device IOThread will be created behind the scenes (just like the old 1:1
threading model).

This series includes the aio_context_acquire/release API which makes it easy to
synchronize access to AioContext across threads.

After this series I will send separate patches for a "query-iothreads" command
that returns thread IDs similar to "query-cpus".  This will allow binding
dataplane threads to host CPUs.

Stefan Hajnoczi (6):
  rfifolock: add recursive FIFO lock
  aio: add aio_context_acquire() and aio_context_release()
  iothread: add I/O thread object
  qdev: add get_pointer_and_free() for temporary strings
  iothread: add "iothread" qdev property type
  dataplane: replace internal thread with IOThread
