This is the first step towards having fine-grained critical sections in
dataplane threads, which will resolve lock ordering problems between
address_space_* functions (which need the BQL when doing MMIO, even
after we complete RCU-based dispatch) and the AioContext.
Because AioContext does not use contention callbacks anymore, the
unit test has to be changed.
Previously applied as a0710f7995f914e3044e5899bd8ff6c43c62f916 and
then reverted.

This document explains how IOThreads and the main loop are related,
especially how to write code that can run in an IOThread. Currently
only virtio-blk-data-plane uses these techniques. The next obvious
target is virtio-scsi; there has also been work on virtio-net.
