This patch adds an AioContext parameter to xen_device_bind_event_channel()
and then uses aio_set_fd_handler() to set the callback rather than
qemu_set_fd_handler().

[Call aio_set_fd_handler() with is_external=true]
Signed-off-by: Anthony PERARD <anthony.perard@citrix.com>
A recent Xen commit [1] clarified the semantics of sector based quantities
used in the blkif protocol such that it is now safe to create a xen-block
device with a logical_block_size != 512, as long as the device only
connects to a frontend advertizing 'feature-large-block-size'.
This patch modifies xen-block accordingly. It also uses a stack variable
for the BlockBackend in xen_block_realize() to avoid repeated dereferencing
of the BlockConf pointer, and changes the parameters of
xen_block_dataplane_create() so that the BlockBackend pointer and sector
size are passed expicitly rather than implicitly via the BlockConf.
These modifications have been tested against a recent Windows PV XENVBD
driver [2] using a xen-disk device with a 4kB logical block size.

The Xen blkif protocol requires that sector based quantities should be
interpreted strictly as multiples of 512 bytes. Specifically:
"first_sect and last_sect in blkif_request_segment, as well as
sector_number in blkif_request, are always expressed in 512-byte units."
Commit fcab2b464e "xen: add header and build dataplane/xen-block.c"
incorrectly modified behaviour to use the block device logical_block_size
property as the scale, instead of correctly shifting values by the
hardcoded BDRV_SECTOR_BITS (and hence scaling them to 512 byte units).
This patch undoes that change and restores compliance with the spec.
Furthermore, this patch also restores the original xen_disk behaviour
of advertizing a hardcoded 'sector-size' value of 512 in xenstore and
scaling 'sectors' accordingly. The realize() method is also modified to
fail if logical_block_size is set to anything other than 512.

The xen-block dataplane currently allocates memory to hold the data for
each request as that request is used, and frees it afterwards. Because
it requires page-aligned blocks, this interacts poorly with non-page-
aligned allocations and balloons the heap.
Instead, allocate the maximum possible buffer size required for the
protocol, which is BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST (currently 11) pages
when the request structure is created, and keep that buffer until it is
destroyed. Since the requests are re-used via a free list, this should
actually improve memory usage.

If the I/O ring is full, the guest cannot send any more requests
until some responses are sent. Only sending all available responses
just before checking for new work does not leave much time for the
guest to supply new work, so this will cause stalls if the ring gets
full. Also, not completing reads as soon as possible adds latency
to the guest.
To alleviate that, complete IO requests as soon as they come back.
xen_block_send_response() already returns a value indicating whether
a notify should be sent, which is all the batching we need.

When I/O consists of many small requests, performance is improved by
batching them together in a single io_submit() call. When there are
relatively few requests, the extra overhead is not worth it. This
introduces a check to start batching I/O requests via blk_io_plug()/
blk_io_unplug() in an amount proportional to the number which were
already in flight at the time we started reading the ring.

This is a purely cosmetic patch that purges the name 'ioreq' from struct,
variable and field names. (This name has been problematic for a long time
as 'ioreq' is the name used for generic I/O requests coming from Xen).
The patch replaces 'struct ioreq' with a new 'XenBlockRequest' type and
'ioreq' field/variable names with 'request', and then does necessary
fix-up to adhere to coding style.
Function names are not modified by this patch. They will be dealt with in
a subsequent patch.

This patch adds the transformations necessary to get dataplane/xen-block.c
to build against the new XenBus/XenDevice framework. MAINTAINERS is also
updated due to the introduction of dataplane/xen-block.h.
NOTE: Existing data structure names are retained for the moment. These will
be modified by subsequent patches. A typedef for XenBlockDataPlane
has been added to the header (based on the old struct XenBlkDev name
for the moment) so that the old names don't need to leak out of the
dataplane code.

Not all of the code duplicated from xen_disk.c is required as the basis for
the new dataplane implementation so this patch removes extraneous code,
along with the legacy #includes and calls to the legacy xen_pv_printf()
function. Error messages are changed to be reported using error_report().
NOTE: The code is still not yet built. Further transformations will be
required to make it correctly interface to the new XenBus/XenDevice
framework. They will be delivered in a subsequent patch.

The new xen-block XenDevice implementation requires the same core
dataplane as the legacy xen_disk implementation it will eventually replace.
This patch therefore copies the legacy xen_disk.c source module into a new
dataplane/xen-block.c source module as the basis for the new dataplane and
adjusts the MAINTAINERS file accordingly.
NOTE: The duplicated code is not yet built. It is simply put into place by
this patch (just fixing style violations) such that the
modifications that will need to be made to the code are not
conflated with code movement, thus making review harder.
