Yes, this can be easily reproduced by stopping the VM and starting a
block-commit job. If the I/O in that device is throttled then the job
will be stalled.
Then there's also the situation that we discussed in IRC: if the
block-commit job is ongoing and then we stop the VM, then the rest of
the data will be committed bypassing the throttling settings. But
that's not related to these changes.
