[PATCH 2/4] virtio-scsi: don't lock AioContext around virtio_queue_aio_attach_host_notifier()

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

virtio_queue_aio_attach_host_notifier() does not require the AioContext
lock. Stop taking the lock and remember add an explicit smp_wmb()
because we were relying on the implicit barrier in the AioContext lock
before.
