The qcrypto_tls_creds_x509_sanity_check() checks whether
certs exist by calling access(). It is valid for this
method to be invoked with certfile==NULL though, since
for client credentials the cert is optional. This caused
it to call access(NULL), which happens to be harmless on
current Linux, but should none the less be avoided.

fafcaf1 added a 'qemu-ga' install target on w32, which can be used
in place of the existing qemu-ga.exe target to also handle dealing
with other components such as DLLs for VSS/fsfreeze and generating
an MSI package if appropriate configure options are present.
As part of that, qemu-ga$(EXESUF) was removed from $TOOLS in favor
of this new qemu-ga target.
The install rule however relies on a direct mapping of the $TOOLS
entry to the actual resulting binary. In the case of w32, qemu-ga
is not identical to qemu-ga$(EXESUF), and the install recipe fails
to find the 'qemu-ga' binary.
Fix this by essentially remapping 'qemu-ga' back to 'qemu-ga.exe'
in the install recipe.
This raises the question of whether or not qemu-ga should continue
to live in TOOLS as opposed to its own special target, but as a
late fix for a regression in 2.5 this commit should be safer, since
we rely on qemu-ga's presence in $TOOLS in several places throughout
Makefile.

If the guests canceles a DMA request we can prematurely
invoke all callbacks of buffered requests and flag all them
as orphaned. Ideally this avoids the need for draining all
requests. For CDROM devices this works in 100% of all cases.

this patch adds a new aio readv compatible function which copies
all data through a bounce buffer. These buffered requests can be
flagged as orphaned which means that their original callback has
already been invoked and the request has just not been completed
by the backend storage. The bounce buffer guarantees that guest
memory corruption is avoided when such a orphaned request is
completed by the backend at a later stage.
This trick only works for read requests as a write request completed
at a later stage might corrupt data as there is no way to control
if and what data has already been written to the storage.

PIO read requests on the ATAPI interface used to be sync blk requests.
This has two significant drawbacks. First the main loop hangs util an
I/O request is completed and secondly if the I/O request does not
complete (e.g. due to an unresponsive storage) Qemu hangs completely.
Note: Due to possible race conditions requests during an ongoing
elementary transfer are still sync.

KVM can't virtualize rdtscp on AMD CPUs yet, so there's no point
in enabling it by default on AMD CPU models, as all we are
getting are confused users because of the "host doesn't support

When a request R is absorbed by request M, it is appended to the
"mr_next" queue led by M, and is completed together with the completion
of M, in virtio_blk_rw_complete.
During DMA restart in virtio_blk_dma_restart_bh, requests in s->rq are
parsed and submitted again, possibly with a stale req->mr_next. It could
be a problem if the request merging in virtio_blk_handle_request hasn't
refreshed every mr_next pointer, in which case, virtio_blk_rw_complete
could walk through unexpected requests following the stale pointers.
Fix this by unsetting the pointer in virtio_blk_rw_complete. It is safe
because this req is either completed and freed right away, or it will be
restarted and parsed from scratch out of the vq later.

The x-input-send-event command was introduced in 2.2 with mention
that it is experimental, but now that several releases have elapsed
without any changes, it would be nice to document why that was done
and should still remain experimental in 2.5.
Meanwhile, our documentation states that we prefer 'lower-case',
rather than 'CamelCase', for qapi enum values. The InputButton and
InputAxis enums violate this convention. However, because they are
currently used primarily for generating code that is used internally;
and their only exposure through QMP is via the experimental
'x-input-send-event' command, we are free to change their spelling.
Of course, it would be nicer to delay such a change until the same
time we promote the command to non-experimental. Adding
documentation will help us remember to do that rename.
We have plans to tighten the qapi generator to flag instances of
inconsistent use of naming conventions; if that lands first, it
will just need to whitelist these exceptions until the time we
settle on the final interface.
Fix a typo in the docs for InputAxis while at it.
