Bugzilla: 1446498

The main loop uses aio_disable_external()/aio_enable_external() to
temporarily disable processing of external AioContext clients like
device emulation.
This allows monitor commands to quiesce I/O and prevent the guest from
submitting new requests while a monitor command is in progress.
The aio_enable_external() API is currently broken when an IOThread is in
aio_poll() waiting for fd activity when the main loop re-enables
external clients. Incrementing ctx->external_disable_cnt does not wake
the IOThread from ppoll(2) so fd processing remains suspended and leads
to unresponsive emulated devices.
This patch adds an aio_notify() call to aio_enable_external() so the
IOThread is kicked out of ppoll(2) and will re-arm the file descriptors.
The bug can be reproduced as follows:
$ qemu -M accel=kvm -m 1024 \
-object iothread,id=iothread0 \
-device virtio-scsi-pci,iothread=iothread0,id=virtio-scsi-pci0 \
-drive if=none,id=drive0,aio=native,cache=none,format=raw,file=test.img \
-device scsi-hd,id=scsi-hd0,drive=drive0 \
-qmp tcp::5555,server,nowait
$ scripts/qmp/qmp-shell localhost:5555
(qemu) blockdev-snapshot-sync device=drive0 snapshot-file=sn1.qcow2
mode=absolute-paths format=qcow2
After blockdev-snapshot-sync completes the SCSI disk will be
unresponsive. This leads to request timeouts inside the guest.
