[PATCH v5 05/21] virtio-scsi: stop using aio_disable_external() during unplug

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This patch is part of an effort to remove the aio_disable_external()
API because it does not fit in a multi-queue block layer world where
many AioContexts may be submitting requests to the same disk.

The SCSI emulation code is already in good shape to stop using
aio_disable_external(). It was only used by commit 9c5aad84da1c
("virtio-scsi: fixed virtio_scsi_ctx_check failed when detaching scsi
disk") to ensure that virtio_scsi_hotunplug() works while the guest
driver is submitting I/O.

Ensure virtio_scsi_hotunplug() is safe as follows:

1. qdev_simple_device_unplug_cb() -> qdev_unrealize() ->
   device_set_realized() calls qatomic_set(&dev->realized, false) so
   that future scsi_device_get() calls return NULL because they exclude
   SCSIDevices with realized=false.

   That means virtio-scsi will reject new I/O requests to this
   SCSIDevice with VIRTIO_SCSI_S_BAD_TARGET even while
   virtio_scsi_hotunplug() is still executing. We are protected against
   new requests!

2. scsi_device_unrealize() already contains a call to
   scsi_device_purge_requests() so that in-flight requests are cancelled
   synchronously. This ensures that no in-flight requests remain once
   qdev_simple_device_unplug_cb() returns.

Thanks to these two conditions we don't need aio_disable_external()
anymore.
