[Qemu-block] [RFC PATCH 00/11] Block layer thread-safety, next part

[Paolo Bonzini]

Here, patches 1-6 make the remaining part of the block layer thread safe.
Patches 7-11 start removing aio_context_acquire/release, so the line
count goes down instead of up.

This is the penultimate series.  The remaining part makes virtio-blk,
virtio-scsi and block jobs thread safe, so that the AioContext lock
can go away altogether.

Paolo

Paolo Bonzini (11):
  block: prepare write threshold code for thread safety
  block: make write-threshold thread-safe
  util: use RCU accessors for notifiers
  block: make before-write notifiers thread-safe
  block-backup: add reqs_lock
  block: more notes on locking
  block: do not acquire AioContext in check_to_replace_node
  block: drain I/O around key management
  block/replication: do not acquire AioContext
  block: do not take AioContext around reopen
  block/snapshot: do not take AioContext lock
  qdev: do not take AioContext when releasing (and thus closing)
    backends
