O-Subject: [RHEL-7 qemu-kvm PATCH 2/2] monitor: maintain at most one G_IO_OUT watch
Bugzilla: 970047

When monitor_flush() is invoked repeatedly outside the monitor_unblocked()
callback, for example from tlb_info() -> ... -> print_pte(), several
watches may be added for the same event.

This is no problem per se because the extra monitor_unblocked() callbacks
are harmless if mon->outbuf is empty, the watches will be removed
gradually. However a big number of watches can grow "gpollfds" without
limit in glib_pollfds_fill(), triggering a -1/EINVAL condition in
g_poll().

Keep at most one such watch, by following the pattern observable in eg.
commits c874ea97 and c3d6b96e. The change has no effect when
monitor_unblocked() calls monitor_flush() (when the watch can either be
removed or renewed 1-for-1), but non-callback contexts won't create an
additional watch when the monitor already has one.
