Yes, looks like there is no way around that to flush the command rings.

When we have to change the spice-server api anyway, then we should 
support async I/O at libspice-server API level I think.  Drop the qxl 
async thread, have a way to submit async requests to the worker, let 
libspice call us back on completion.

comments?

cheers,
   Gerd
