Doesn't Stefan's patch conflict with your bdrv_co_flush patch?
Long term I think we should get rid of bdrv_flush and bdrv_aio_flush and
make all drivers use bdrv_co_flush. Having three different interfaces
for flush and emulation functions that do mappings for all missing
implementations is just insane.
