This patch reorganizes aio_poll callers to establish new rules for
dataplane locking.  The idea is that I/O operations on a dataplane
BDS (i.e. one where the AioContext is not the main one) do not call
aio_poll anymore.  Instead, they wait for the operation to end in the
other I/O thread, at which point the other I/O thread calls bdrv_wakeup
to wake up the main thread.

With this change, only one thread runs aio_poll for an AioContext.
While aio_context_acquire/release is still needed to protect the BDSes,
it need not interrupt the other thread's event loop anymore, and therefore
it does not need contention callbacks anymore.  Thus the patch can remove
RFifoLock.  This fixes possible hangs in bdrv_drain_all, reproducible (for
example) by unplugging a virtio-scsi-dataplane device while there is I/O
going on for a virtio-blk-dataplane on the same I/O thread.

Patch 1 is a bugfix that I already posted.

Patch 2 makes blockjobs independent of aio_poll, the reason for which
should be apparent from the explanation above.

Patch 3 is an independent mirror bugfix, that I wanted to submit separately
but happens to fix a hang in COLO replication.  Like patch 1 I believe
it's pre-existing and merely exposed by these patches.

Patches 4 to 10 introduce the infrastructure to wake up the main thread
while bdrv_drain or other synchronous operations are running.  Patches 11
to 14 do other changes to prepare for this.  Notably bdrv_drain_all
needs to be called without holding any AioContext lock.

Patch 15 then does the big change, after which there are just some
cleanups left to do.

Fam Zheng (1):
  qed: Implement .bdrv_drain

Paolo Bonzini (17):
  replication: interrupt failover if the main device is closed
  blockjob: introduce .drain callback for jobs
  mirror: use bdrv_drained_begin/bdrv_drained_end
  block: add BDS field to count in-flight requests
  block: change drain to look only at one child at a time
  block: introduce bdrv_poll_while and bdrv_wakeup
  nfs: move nfs_set_events out of the while loops
  nfs: use bdrv_poll_while and bdrv_wakeup
  sheepdog: use bdrv_poll_while and bdrv_wakeup
  aio: introduce qemu_get_current_aio_context
  iothread: detach all block devices before stopping them
  replication: pass BlockDriverState to reopen_backing_file
  block: prepare bdrv_reopen_multiple to release AioContext
  block: only call aio_poll on the current thread's AioContext
  iothread: release AioContext around aio_poll
  qemu-thread: introduce QemuRecMutex
  aio: convert from RFifoLock to QemuRecMutex
