I think the reason is the same as for the previous patch. Reviewed-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>

Commit abfcd2760b3e ("dma-helpers: prevent dma_blk_cb() vs dma_aio_cancel() race") acquired the AioContext lock inside dma_blk_cb() to avoid a race with scsi_device_purge_requests() running in the main loop thread. The SCSI code no longer calls dma_aio_cancel() from the main loop thread while I/O is running in the IOThread AioContext. Therefore it is no longer necessary to take this lock to protect DMAAIOCB fields. The ->cb() function also does not require the lock because blk_aio_*() and friends do not need the AioContext lock. Both hw/ide/core.c and hw/ide/macio.c also call dma_blk_io() but don't rely on it taking the AioContext lock, so this change is safe.
