Fam, do you remember whether this was really only about drain? Because
in that case...

...fixing it in BDRV_POLL_WHILE() rather than the drain functions may
have been a bad idea.
I got a bug assigned where we have a large (200 GB) fragmented qcow2
image, and qemu-img convert takes two hours before it even starts to
copy data. What it does in this time is iterating through the whole
image with bdrv_block_status_above() in order to estimate the work to be
done (and of course it will repeat the same calls while actually copying
data).
One of the things I saw is that between each pair of lseek() calls, we
also have unnecessary poll() calls, and these were introduced by this
patch. If I modify bdrv_common_block_status_above() so that it doesn't
poll if data.done == true already, the time needed to iterate through my
test image is cut in half.
Now, of course, I'm still only seeing a few seconds for a 100 GB image,
so there must be more that is wrong for the reporter, but it suggests to
me that BDRV_POLL_WHILE() shouldn't be polling unconditionally when only
one of its users actually needs this.
