The Big QEMU Lock (BQL) has many names and they are confusing. The
actual QemuMutex variable is called qemu_global_mutex but it's commonly
referred to as the BQL in discussions and some code comments. The
locking APIs, however, are called qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() and
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread().
The "iothread" name is historic and comes from when the main thread was
split into into KVM vcpu threads and the "iothread" (now called the main
loop thread). I have contributed to the confusion myself by introducing
a separate --object iothread, a separate concept unrelated to the BQL.
The "iothread" name is no longer appropriate for the BQL. Rename the
locking APIs to:
- void bql_lock(void)
- void bql_unlock(void)
- bool bql_locked(void)
There are more APIs with "iothread" in their names. Subsequent patches
will rename them. There are also comments and documentation that will be
updated in later patches.

The tcg/tcg.h header is a big bucket, containing stuff related to
the translators and the JIT backend. The places that initialize
tcg or create new threads do not need all of that, so split out
these three functions to a new header.

mttcg asserts that an execution ending with EXCP_HALTED must have
cpu->halted. However between the event or instruction that sets
cpu->halted and requests exit and the assertion here, an
asynchronous event could clear cpu->halted.
This leads to crashes running AIX on ppc/pseries because it uses
H_CEDE/H_PROD hcalls, where H_CEDE sets self->halted = 1 and
H_PROD sets other cpu->halted = 0 and kicks it.
H_PROD could be turned into an interrupt to wake, but several other
places in ppc, sparc, and semihosting follow what looks like a similar
pattern setting halted = 0 directly. So remove this assertion.

qatomic_mb_read and qatomic_mb_set were the very first atomic primitives
introduced for QEMU; their semantics are unclear and they provide a false
sense of safety.
The last use of qatomic_mb_read() has been removed, so delete it.
qatomic_mb_set() instead can survive as an optimized
qatomic_set()+smp_mb(), similar to Linux's smp_store_mb(), but
rename it to qatomic_set_mb() to match the order of the two
operations.

Commit a82fd5a4ec was intended to be a code cleanup, but
unfortunately it has a bug. It moves the initialization of the
TCG cflags from the "start a new vcpu" function to the
thread handler; this is fine when each vcpu has its own thread,
but when we are doing round-robin of vcpus on a single thread
we end up only initializing the cflags for CPU 0, not for any
of the others.
The most obvious effect of this bug is that running in icount
mode with more than one CPU is broken; typically the guest
hangs shortly after it brings up the secondary CPUs.
This reverts commit a82fd5a4ec.

g_new(T, n) is neater than g_malloc(sizeof(T) * n). It's also safer,
for two reasons. One, it catches multiplication overflowing size_t.
Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch
more type errors.
This commit only touches allocations with size arguments of the form
sizeof(T).

A TCG vCPU doing a busy loop systematicaly hangs the QEMU monitor
if the user passes 'device_add' without argument. This is because
drain_cpu_all() which is called from qmp_device_add() cannot return
if readers don't exit read-side critical sections. That is typically
what busy-looping TCG vCPUs do:
int cpu_exec(CPUState *cpu)
{
[...]
rcu_read_lock();
[...]
while (!cpu_handle_exception(cpu, &ret)) {
// Busy loop keeps vCPU here
}
[...]
rcu_read_unlock();
return ret;
}
For MTTCG, have all vCPU threads register a force_rcu notifier that will
kick them out of the loop using async_run_on_cpu(). The notifier is called
with the rcu_registry_lock mutex held, using async_run_on_cpu() ensures
there are no deadlocks.
For RR, a single thread runs all vCPUs. Just register a single notifier
that kicks the current vCPU to the next one.
