These patches aim to solve two types of DMA-reentrancy issues:

1.) mmio -> dma -> mmio case
To solve this, we track whether the device is engaged in io by
checking/setting a reentrancy-guard within APIs used for MMIO access.

2.) bh -> dma write -> mmio case
This case is trickier, since we dont have a generic way to associate a
bh with the underlying Device/DeviceState. Thus, this version allows a
device to associate a reentrancy-guard with a bh, when creating it.
(Instead of calling qemu_bh_new, you call qemu_bh_new_guarded)

I replaced most of the qemu_bh_new invocations with the guarded analog,
except for the ones where the DeviceState was not trivially accessible

v4-> v5: 
    - Add corresponding checkpatch checks
    - Save/restore reentrancy-flag when entering/exiting BHs
    - Improve documentation
    - Check object_dynamic_cast return value

v3 -> v4: Instead of changing all of the DMA APIs, instead add an
    optional reentrancy guard to the BH API.

v2 -> v3: Bite the bullet and modify the DMA APIs, rather than
    attempting to guess DeviceStates in BHs.

Alexander Bulekov (4):
  memory: prevent dma-reentracy issues
  async: Add an optional reentrancy guard to the BH API
  checkpatch: add qemu_bh_new/aio_bh_new checks
  hw: replace most qemu_bh_new calls with qemu_bh_new_guarded

Hi Alex,

From my perspective, I'm happy with the changes made, so from me at
least:
