Also in mirror.c, they are block_job_sleep_ns with delay_ns, where delay_ns can
be 0.
I have seen sometime,some server/qmp hangs, on a pretty old server/slow disks.
(no more in bitmap scan with theses last patches, but on the block mirror
itself)
if (!s->synced) {
block_job_sleep_ns(&s->common, QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME, delay_ns);
if (block_job_is_cancelled(&s->common)) {
break;
}
} else if (!should_complete) {
delay_ns = (s->in_flight == 0 && cnt == 0 ? SLICE_TIME : 0);

This patch only converts the mirror block job to use the new relax
function. The other block jobs (stream, backup, commit) are still using
a 0 ns delay and are therefore broken. They should probably be
converted in the same series.
