Thanks! The functional change looks good to me. I'll see to add an
iotest to cover this case.

Some notes: There shouldn't be any spaces at the front of these lines,
and every line should be limited to 72 characters.

Also, the commit message should not end in a full stop (and it's good to
keep it short).

I've reworded a bit of the commit message (and shortened the title*) and
applied it to my block branch:

[1] I've shortened it to "mirror: Fix inconsistent backing AioContext
for after mirroring". I usually try to fit the title into 50 characters
(because that's what the default vim highlighting is proposing...), so
for reference, I would have made it something like "block: Align backing
BDS's AioContext with overlay" -- if it had been my patch. Since it was
yours, I'm fine with commit titles longer than 50 characters (although
they really should not exceed 72).
