Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification.
Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending
on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target.
However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.

The char-flow refactoring introduced a busy-wait that depended on
an action from the VCPU thread. However, the VCPU thread could
never take that action because the busy-wait starved the VCPU thread
of the BQL because it never dropped the mutex while running select.
Paolo doesn't want to drop this optimization for fear that we will
stop detecting these busy waits. I'm afraid to keep this optimization
even with the busy-wait fixed because I think a similar problem can
occur just with heavy I/O thread load manifesting itself as VCPU pauses.
As a compromise, introduce an artificial timeout after a thousand
iterations but print a rate limited warning when this happens. This
let's us still detect when this condition occurs without it being
a fatal error.

The character backend refactoring introduced an undesirable busy wait.
The busy wait happens if can_read returns zero and there is data available
on the character device's file descriptor. Then, the I/O watch will
fire continuously and, with TCG, the CPU thread will never run.
1) Char backend asks front end if it can write
2) Front end says no
3) poll() finds the char backend's descriptor is available
4) Goto (1)
What we really want is this (note that step 3 avoids the busy wait):
1) Char backend asks front end if it can write
2) Front end says no
3) poll() goes on without char backend's descriptor
4) Goto (1) until qemu_chr_accept_input() called
5) Char backend asks front end if it can write
6) Front end says yes
7) poll() finds the char backend's descriptor is available
8) Backend handler called
After this patch, the IOWatchPoll source and the watch source are
separated. The IOWatchPoll is simply a hook that runs during the prepare
phase on each main loop iteration. The hook adds/removes the actual
source depending on the return value from can_read.
A simple reproducer is
qemu-system-i386 -serial mon:stdio
... followed by banging on the terminal as much as you can. :) Without
this patch, emulation will hang.

It ignored the error code, and at least the 'goto fail' is obvious
nonsense as it creates an endless loop (if the next attempt doesn't
magically succeed) and leaves the in-memory L1 table in big-endian
instead of converting it back.
In error cases, there's no point in writing an updated L1 table, so
skip this part for them.

It is not necessary to adjust the slice time at runtime. We already
extend the current slice in order to carry over accounting into the next
slice. Changing the actual slice time value introduces oscillations.
The guest may experience large changes in throughput or IOPS from one
moment to the next when slice times are adjusted.

I/O throttling relies on bdrv_acct_done() which is called when a request
completes. This leaves a blind spot since we only charge for completed
requests, not submitted requests.
For example, if there is 1 operation remaining in this time slice the
guest could submit 3 operations and they will all be submitted
successfully since they don't actually get accounted for until they
complete.
Originally we probably thought this is okay since the requests will be
accounted when the time slice is extended. In practice it causes
fluctuations since the guest can exceed its I/O limit and it will be
punished for this later on.
Account for I/O upon submission so that I/O limits are enforced
properly.

usb-storage takes care to fetch the USB serial number from -drive
options, but it neglected to pass its own 'serial' property to the
scsi-disk it creates. With this patch, the 'serial' qdev property and
the 'serial' option in -drive behave the same and correctly apply the
serial number on both USB and SCSI level.

Usually, nand erase operation has only 2 or 3 address cycles.
We need to mask s->addr to zero unset stale high-order bytes in the nand address
before using it as the erase address.
This fixes the NAND erase operation in Linux.
[PC: Generalised to work for any number of address cycles rather than just 3]

Reset can be used to empty the rx-fifo. As the fifo full condition is
used to return false from can_receive, queued rx data should be flushed
on reset accordingly.
