The Big QEMU Lock (BQL) has many names and they are confusing. The
actual QemuMutex variable is called qemu_global_mutex but it's commonly
referred to as the BQL in discussions and some code comments. The
locking APIs, however, are called qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() and
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread().
The "iothread" name is historic and comes from when the main thread was
split into into KVM vcpu threads and the "iothread" (now called the main
loop thread). I have contributed to the confusion myself by introducing
a separate --object iothread, a separate concept unrelated to the BQL.
The "iothread" name is no longer appropriate for the BQL. Rename the
locking APIs to:
- void bql_lock(void)
- void bql_unlock(void)
- bool bql_locked(void)
There are more APIs with "iothread" in their names. Subsequent patches
will rename them. There are also comments and documentation that will be
updated in later patches.

Extend the blocker interface so that a blocker can be registered for
one or more migration modes. The existing interfaces register a
blocker for all modes, and the new interfaces take a varargs list
of modes.
Internally, maintain a separate blocker list per mode. The same Error
object may be added to multiple lists. When a block is deleted, it is
removed from every list, and the Error is freed.
No functional change until a new mode is added.

Modify migrate_add_blocker and migrate_del_blocker to take an Error **
reason. This allows migration to own the Error object, so that if
an error occurs in migrate_add_blocker, migration code can free the Error
and clear the client handle, simplifying client code. It also simplifies
the migrate_del_blocker call site.
In addition, this is a pre-requisite for a proposed future patch that would
add a mode argument to migration requests to support live update, and
maintain a list of blockers for each mode. A blocker may apply to a single
mode or to multiple modes, and passing Error** will allow one Error object
to be registered for multiple modes.
No functional change.

We want to support memory devices that can automatically decide how many
memslots they will use. In the worst case, they have to use a single
memslot.
The target use cases are virtio-mem and the hyper-v balloon.
Let's calculate a reasonable limit such a memory device may use, and
instruct the device to make a decision based on that limit. Use a simple
heuristic that considers:
* A memslot soft-limit for all memory devices of 256; also, to not
consume too many memslots -- which could harm performance.
* Actually still free and unreserved memslots
* The percentage of the remaining device memory region that memory device
will occupy.
Further, while we properly check before plugging a memory device whether
there still is are free memslots, we have other memslot consumers (such as
boot memory, PCI BARs) that don't perform any checks and might dynamically
consume memslots without any prior reservation. So we might succeed in
plugging a memory device, but once we dynamically map a PCI BAR we would
be in trouble. Doing accounting / reservation / checks for all such
users is problematic (e.g., sometimes we might temporarily split boot
memory into two memslots, triggered by the BIOS).
We use the historic magic memslot number of 509 as orientation to when
supporting 256 memory devices -> memslots (leaving 253 for boot memory and
other devices) has been proven to work reliable. We'll fallback to
suggesting a single memslot if we don't have at least 509 total memslots.
Plugging vhost devices with less than 509 memslots available while we
have memory devices plugged that consume multiple memslots due to
automatic decisions can be problematic. Most configurations might just fail
due to "limit < used + reserved", however, it can also happen that these
memory devices would suddenly consume memslots that would actually be
required by other memslot consumers (boot, PCI BARs) later. Note that this
has always been sketchy with vhost devices that support only a small number
of memslots; but we don't want to make it any worse.So let's keep it simple
and simply reject plugging such vhost devices in such a configuration.
Eventually, all vhost devices that want to be fully compatible with such
memory devices should support a decent number of memslots (>= 509).

We want to support memory devices that have a dynamically managed memory
region container as device memory region. This device memory region maps
multiple RAM memory subregions (e.g., aliases to the same RAM memory
region), whereby these subregions can be (un)mapped on demand.
Each RAM subregion will consume a memslot in KVM and vhost, resulting in
such a new device consuming memslots dynamically, and initially usually
0. We already track the number of used vs. required memslots for all
memslots. From that, we can derive the number of reserved memslots that
must not be used otherwise.
The target use case is virtio-mem and the hyper-v balloon, which will
dynamically map aliases to RAM memory region into their device memory
region container.
Properly document what's supported and what's not and extend the vhost
memslot check accordingly.

xen_piix3_set_irq() isn't PIIX specific: PIIX is a single PCI device
while xen_piix3_set_irq() maps multiple PCI devices to their respective
IRQs, which is board-specific. Rename xen_piix3_set_irq() to communicate
this.
Also rename XEN_PIIX_NUM_PIRQS to XEN_IOAPIC_NUM_PIRQS since the Xen's
IOAPIC rather than PIIX has this many interrupt routes.
