The recent changes that brought RCU delayed device deletion,
broke few tests and this test breakage went unnoticed.

Fix this test by rewriting it in python
(which allows to wait for DEVICE_DELETED events before continuing).

It seems to me like all tests create a null-co block device.  The only
difference is that test1() creates an R/W node, whereas all others
create an RO node.  I don’t think that matters though, so maybe we can
replace code duplication by creating the (RO) null-co node here.

Furthermore, we could also create two I/O threads and two accompanying
virtio-scsi devices here (tests that don’t use them shouldn’t care)...

A bit weird that you change your coding style for the @filters parameter
(i.e., putting spaces around '='), and pylint thinks so, too.

I don’t think it makes a difference for this test, but perhaps it would
be cleaner to wait for the DEVICE_DELETED event even for the virtio-scsi
devices?

The bash version deleted them the other way around, but I suppose it
doesn’t matter.  (It just made me wonder why you changed the order.)

I suppose it isn’t wrong to check this in two places (in the setUp()
decorator, and then here again), but it doesn’t seem necessary either.

I agree with that, the test can be improved a lot. I on purpose didn't do
this since I wanted 1:1 translation of the bash test.
After that a refactoring, or a rewrite of this test can be very welcome.

It is a late change, which I copy&pasta'ed so no wonder it is a bit different.
Fixed!

That code too I would like later to move to a function or so.

Actually this doesn't work since the whole thing is started with 'qtest' accel,
and there is no real guest there. 

The pcie device removal in 'production' happens only when you place the device on a 
pcie root port or on pci hotplug enabled bridge,
which then signals the removal of the device to the guest which needs to ACK this,
and only then the qemu actually removes the device and sends the DEVICE_DELETED event.

So this device_del is pretty much pointless I think, and it never will be really removed.
Again I tried to just translate the test without doing any more changes, but I will remove this.

I just didn't notice it since it didn't seem to be important.

That is a result of a copy&pasta from some other iotest.
Fixed, thanks!
