Uh oh.

This causes a segfault sometimes, and other times an abort:


   # ./qemu-img create -f qed test.qed 512M
   Formatting 'test.qed', fmt=qed size=536870912 cluster_size=65536

   # ./qemu-io -c "read 0 512M" test.qed
   read 536870912/536870912 bytes at offset 0
   512 MiB, 1 ops; 0.0556 sec (8.988 GiB/sec and 17.9759 ops/sec)
   Segmentation fault (core dumped)


If I run the above qemu-io command with gdb, it will abort in
qed_plug_allocating_write_reqs().

I'd hazard a guess (I have not verified) that it is due to the
qed_header_write() call triggered by the aio flush callback function
qed_clear_need_check().  The aio flush is done inside the
qed_need_check_timer_cb() call.
