I missed the fact that when an exclusive work item runs it drops the
BQL to ensure all no vCPUs are stuck waiting for it, hence causing a
deadlock. However the actual helper needs to take the BQL especially
as we'll be messing with device emulation bits during the update which
all assume BQL is held.
We make a minor cpu_reloading_memory_map which must try and unlock the
RCU if we are actually outside the running context.

There are now only two uses of the global exit_request left.
The first ensures we exit the run_loop when we first start to process
pending work and in the kick handler. This is just as easily done by
setting the first_cpu->exit_request flag.
The second use is in the round robin kick routine. The global
exit_request ensured every vCPU would set its local exit_request and
cause a full exit of the loop. Now the iothread isn't being held while
running we can just rely on the kick handler to push us out as intended.
We lightly re-factor the main vCPU thread to ensure cpu->exit_requests
cause us to exit the main loop and process any IO requests that might
come along. As an cpu->exit_request may legitimately get squashed
while processing the EXCP_INTERRUPT exception we also check
cpu->queued_work_first to ensure queued work is expedited as soon as
possible.

..and make the definition local to cpus. In preparation for MTTCG the
concept of a global tcg_current_cpu will no longer make sense. However
we still need to keep track of it in the single-threaded case to be able
to exit quickly when required.
qemu_cpu_kick_no_halt() moves and becomes qemu_cpu_kick_rr_cpu() to
emphasise its use-case. qemu_cpu_kick now kicks the relevant cpu as
well as qemu_kick_rr_cpu() which will become a no-op in MTTCG.
For the time being the setting of the global exit_request remains.

The function cpu_resume_from_signal() is now always called with a
NULL puc argument, and is rather misnamed since it is never called
from a signal handler. It is essentially forcing an exit to the
top level cpu loop but without raising any exception, so rename
it to cpu_loop_exit_noexc() and drop the useless unused argument.

Since the only caller of page_unprotect() which might cause it to
need to call cpu_resume_from_signal() is handle_cpu_signal() in
the user-mode code, push the longjump handling out to that function.
Since this is the only caller of cpu_resume_from_signal() which
passes a non-NULL puc argument, split the non-NULL handling into
a new cpu_exit_tb_from_sighandler() function. This allows us
to merge the softmmu and usermode implementations of the
cpu_resume_from_signal() function, which are now identical.

Gather up all the fields currently in CPUState which deal with the CPU's
AddressSpace into a separate CPUAddressSpace struct. This paves the way
for allowing the CPU to know about more than one AddressSpace.
The rearrangement also allows us to make the MemoryListener a directly
embedded object in the CPUAddressSpace (it could not be embedded in
CPUState because 'struct MemoryListener' isn't defined for the user-only
builds). This allows us to resolve the FIXME in tcg_commit() by going
directly from the MemoryListener to the CPUAddressSpace.
This patch extracts the actual update of the cached dispatch pointer
from cpu_reload_memory_map() (which is renamed accordingly to
cpu_reloading_memory_map() as it is only responsible for breaking
cpu-exec.c's RCU critical section now). This lets us keep the definition
of the CPUAddressSpace struct private to exec.c.

The reason for cpu_reload_memory_map()'s RCU operations is not
so much because the guest could make the critical section very
long, but that it could have a critical section within which
it made an arbitrary number of changes to the memory map and
thus accumulate an unbounded amount of memory data structures
awaiting reclamation. Clarify the comment to make this clearer.

The goal is to split the functions such that cpu-exec is CPU specific
content, while cpus-exec-common.c is generic code only. The function
interface to cpu-exec needs to be virtualised to prepare support for
multi-arch and moving these definitions out saves bloating the QOM
interface. So move these definitions out of cpu-exec to a new module,
cpu-exec-common.
