Can we assume block_job_remove_all_bdrv() to always hold the job's

I tried a doing something similar as a proof-of-concept

diff --git a/blockjob.c b/blockjob.c

       */
-    bdrv_graph_wrlock(NULL);
      while (job->nodes) {
          GSList *l = job->nodes;
          BdrvChild *c = l->data;
job->nodes = l->next; + bdrv_graph_wrlock(c->bs);
          bdrv_op_unblock_all(c->bs, job->blocker);
          bdrv_root_unref_child(c);
+        bdrv_graph_wrunlock();
g_slist_free_1(l);
      }
-    bdrv_graph_wrunlock();
  }

and while it did get slightly further, I ran into another deadlock with

Interesting, why in bdrv_close() we pass NULL to bdrv_graph_wrlock.. Shouldn't 
bdrv_close() be called with bs aio context locked?
