Given the name "add_to_iovec" I think it is pretty surprising
that it calls "qemu_flush" at all.

It is also pretty wierd that we're checking two different
conditions in two different places.

Right now the code is essentially doing this:

     if (f->iovcnt >= MAX_IOV_SIZE) {
        qemu_fflush(f);
     }
     if (f->buf_index == IO_BUF_SIZE) {
        qemu_fflush(f);
     }

Except that in the qemu_put_buffer_async() case, we're
only doing the first of these two checks. This feels
very odd indeed - I would have thought either it should
do both, or do neither.

Assuming doing both flushs is ok for qemu_put_buffer_async
then I'd suggest renaming 'add_to_iovec' to 'queue_buffer'
and have that method do both of these qemu_fflush() calls.
