virtio-blk: schedule virtio_notify_config to run on main context
virtio_notify_config() needs to acquire the global mutex, which isn't allowed from an iothread, and may lead to a deadlock like this: - main thead * Has acquired: qemu_global_mutex. * Is trying the acquire: iothread AioContext lock via AIO_WAIT_WHILE (after aio_poll). - iothread * Has acquired: AioContext lock. * Is trying to acquire: qemu_global_mutex (via virtio_notify_config->prepare_mmio_access). If virtio_blk_resize() is called from an iothread, schedule virtio_notify_config() to be run in the main context BH.
