I am still working on testing it, but I think '[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] aio: 
strengthen memory barriers for bottom half scheduling' is likely 
something that should go in rc3 if it is to be our final RC.

I am seeing a lot more missed completion notifications in my testing 
right now than I have even a month ago, so I am a little concerned.

I'm trying to reproduce with this patch /right now/ to confirm it fixes 
my problem; it at least fixes Paul Leveille's.
