To make the implementation more consistent with read/write operations,
wouldn't it make sense to provide a bdrv_co_flush() globally instead of
using the synchronous version as the preferred public interface?

This is the semantics that I would expect of a bdrv_co_flush() anyway,
your use of it for an AIO emulation functions confused me a bit at first.
