Reviewed the patch now, and I'm not sure how you can do 2/3 for the
single-threaded CPU loop.  They could be moved out of cpu_exec and into
cpus.c (in a separate patch), but you need exit_request and
tcg_current_cpu to properly kick the single-threaded CPU loop out of
qemu_tcg_cpu_thread_fn.

Thanks,

Paolo
