On restart, we were scheduling a BH to process queued requests, which
would run before starting up the data plane, leading to those requests
being assigned and started on coroutines on the main context.
This could cause requests to be wrongly processed in parallel from
different threads (the main thread and the iothread managing the data
plane), potentially leading to multiple issues.
For example, stopping and resuming a VM multiple times while the guest
is generating I/O on a virtio_blk device can trigger a crash with a
stack tracing looking like this one:
