If guest memory is touched then the main loop could be blocked due to postcopy and when the IOThread executes monitor_qmp_bh_responder() -> monitor_json_emitter_raw() -> monitor_puts() it will also hang! Please add a comment above the out_lock declaration letting users know that they must not touch guest memory while holding the lock.
