[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 5/8] block: use safe iteration over AioContext notifiers

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

It's possible that an AioContext notifier user was close to finishing
when .detach_aio_context() or .attached_aio_context() is called.  In
that case they may call bdrv_remove_aio_context_notifier() during the
callback.

Use safe iteration to avoid crashing when the notifier list is modified
during iteration.  We must not only handle the case where the current
aio notifier is removed during a callback but also the one where any
other aio notifier is removed.

The next patch adds an AioContext notifier for block jobs and they
really could be terminating just as .detach_aio_context() is invoked.
