From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefa...@redhat.com>
Calling aio_poll() directly may have been fine previously, but this is
the future, man! The difference between an aio_poll() loop and
BDRV_POLL_WHILE() is that BDRV_POLL_WHILE() releases the AioContext
around aio_poll().
This allows the IOThread to run fd handlers or BHs to complete the
request. Failure to release the AioContext causes deadlocks.
Using BDRV_POLL_WHILE() partially fixes a 'savevm' hang with -object
iothread.
