This isn't bisectable:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
block.c:2208: error: 'bdrv_aio_noop_em' defined but not used

Maybe put everything in one patch, it's small enough now. Also, in
qemu-options.hx you could explain what volatile actually means. Below
the line that you change there are some paragraphs that explain the
behaviour for each value.

Other than that the series looks good to me. I'm not sure if Anthony is
already convinced, though. Everyone else seems to agree with the
intention of the series.
