Hi,

This patchset enables the use of GLib threadpool infrastructure in
9pfs. It contains the following patches:

1/3 - Move the paio_signal_handler to a generic location.
2/3 - Helper routines to use GLib threadpool infrastructure in 9pfs.
3/3 - Convert v9fs_stat to threaded model.

As a prerequisite, before these patches are applied, we need to apply
Anthony's patch "Add support for glib based threading and convert qemu
thread to use it" found at
http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg52791.html


Testing carried out:

This patchset has been tested by running the following autotest suites
successfully:
* Dbench
* Fsstress
* Connecthon
* Tuxera POSIX.

Please let me know your comments.
