[PATCH 0/1] block: Do not poll in bdrv_set_aio_context_ignore() when acquiring new_context

[Zhiyong Ye]

When bdrv_set_aio_context_ignore() is called in the main loop to change
the AioContext onto the IO thread, the bdrv_drain_invoke_entry() never
gets to run and the IO thread hangs at co_schedule_bh_cb().

This is because the AioContext is occupied by the main thread after
being attached to the IO thread, and the main thread poll in
bdrv_drained_end() waiting for the IO request to be drained, but the IO
thread cannot acquire the AioContext, which leads to deadlock.
