I will preffer that migration code don't know about aiocontexts.

Why are we dropping it here?
I can understand doing it on the error case.

We have done a qemu_fopen_bdrv() without acquiring the context, not sure
if we really need it (or not). My understanding of locking is that we
should get the context on first use and maintain it until last use.
Does it work in a different way?

I will very much preffer to have a:
bdrv_snapshot_list_full_whatever()
That does the two operations and don't make me know about aio_contexts.
What I need there really is just the block layer to fill the sn_tab and
to told me if there is a problem, no real need of knowing about
contexts, no?
Thanks, Juan.
