aio_co_wake provides the infrastructure to start a coroutine on a "home" AioContext. It will be used by CoMutex and CoQueue, so that coroutines don't jump from one context to another when they go to sleep on a mutex or waitqueue. However, it can also be used as a more efficient alternative to one-shot bottom halves, and saves the effort of tracking which AioContext a coroutine is running on. aio_co_schedule is the part of aio_co_wake that starts a coroutine on a remove AioContext, but it is also useful to implement e.g. bdrv_set_aio_context callbacks. The implementation of aio_co_schedule is based on a lock-free multiple-producer, single-consumer queue. The multiple producers use cmpxchg to add to a LIFO stack. The consumer (a per-AioContext bottom half) grabs all items added so far, inverts the list to make it FIFO, and goes through it one item at a time until it's empty. The data structure was inspired by OSv, which uses it in the very code we'll "port" to QEMU for the thread-safe CoMutex. Most of the new code is really tests.
