BDRV_POLL_WHILE waits for the started I/O by releasing bs's ctx then polling
the main context, which relies on the yielded coroutine continuing on bs->ctx
before notifying qemu_aio_context with bdrv_wakeup().
Thus, using qemu_coroutine_enter to start I/O is wrong because if the coroutine
is entered from main loop, co->ctx will be qemu_aio_context, as a result of the
"release, poll, acquire" loop of BDRV_POLL_WHILE, race conditions happen when
both main thread and the iothread access the same BDS:
main loop iothread

blockdev_snapshot
aio_context_acquire(bs->ctx)
virtio_scsi_data_plane_handle_cmd
bdrv_drained_begin(bs->ctx)
bdrv_flush(bs)

aio_context_acquire(bs->ctx)
Note that in above case, bdrv_drained_begin() doesn't do the "release,
poll, acquire" in BDRV_POLL_WHILE, because bs->in_flight == 0.
Fix this by using bdrv_coroutine_enter and enter coroutine in the right
context.
iotests 109 output is updated because the coroutine reenter flow during
mirror job complete is different (now through co_queue_wakeup, instead

Usually guest devices don't like other writers to the same image, so
they use blk_set_perm() to prevent this from happening. In the migration
phase before the VM is actually running, though, they don't have a
problem with writes to the image. On the other hand, storage migration
needs to be able to write to the image in this phase, so the restrictive
blk_set_perm() call of qdev devices breaks it.
This patch flags all BlockBackends with a qdev device as
blk->disable_perm during incoming migration, which means that the
requested permissions are stored in the BlockBackend, but not actually
applied to its root node yet.
Once migration has finished and the VM should be resumed, the
permissions are applied. If they cannot be applied (e.g. because the NBD
server used for block migration hasn't been shut down), resuming the VM
fails.

This allows error returns to a function that previously always
succeeded, and the same is true for quite a few callers and their
callers. Converting all of them within the same patch would be too much,
so for now everyone tells that they don't need any permissions and allow
everyone else to do anything. This way we can use &error_abort initially

blk_eject is only used by scsi-disk and atapi, and in both cases we

The "issue" here is that the tray state does not generate a QMP event
unless there is a medium/BDS attached to the device, so if libvirt et al
are waiting for a tray event to occur from an empty-but-closed drive,
software opening that drive will not emit an event and libvirt will
wait forever.
Change this by modifying blk_eject to always emit an event, instead of
conditionally on a "real" backend eject.

This is the final patch for converting the common I/O path to take
a BdrvChild parameter instead of BlockDriverState.
The completion of this conversion means that all users that perform I/O
on an image need to actually hold a reference (in the form of BdrvChild,
possible as part of a BlockBackend) to that image. This also protects
against inconsistent use of BlockBackend vs. BlockDriverState functions
because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and
blk->root is private for block-backends.c.
In addition, we can now distinguish different users in the I/O path,
