dma: Avoid reentrancy in DMA transfer handlers
With the conversion of the block layer to coroutines, bdrv_read/write have changed to run a nested event loop that calls qemu_bh_poll. Consequently a scheduled BH can be called while a DMA transfer handler runs and this means that DMA_run becomes reentrant. Devices haven't been designed to cope with that, so instead of running a nested transfer handler just wait for the next invocation of the BH from the main loop. This fixes some problems with the floppy device. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
