Great. FWIW, this is the most similar version to the one we played with
in 2013.
I have an alternative one that keeps the single address_space_rw API,
and checks if you have the iothread mutex using thread-local storage.
The reason for that is that I would have to introduce
address_space_map/unmap_unlocked too, which I didn't really like. Also,
in the not-so-long term we want the same code (e.g. SCSI layer) to run
in both locked and unlocked mode.
What do you think?
Paolo
