Do you mean that why qemu_aio_flush doesn't invoke those lines of
codes above it? As what i said in above comments, when one VM has 2
multiple disks with enabling I/O throttling, if only one disk need to
be flushed, only this disk's throttled request need to be drained, and
another disk's throttled requests don't need.
