Paolo Bonzini 158ef8cbb7 qemu-thread: fix qemu_event without futexes
This had a possible deadlock that was visible with rcutorture.

    qemu_event_set                    qemu_event_wait
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
                                      cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY
                                      futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock
                                      futex_wait: value == BUSY
    xchg reads BUSY, writes SET
    futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast
                                      futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait
                                      <deadlock>

The fix is simply to avoid condvar tricks and do the obvious locking
around pthread_cond_broadcast:

    qemu_event_set        qemu_event_wait
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
                                      cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY
                                      futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock
                                      futex_wait: value == BUSY
    xchg reads BUSY, writes SET
    futex_wake: pthread_mutex_lock
    (blocks)
                                      futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait
    (mutex unlocked)
    futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast
    futex_wake: pthread_mutex_unlock
                                      futex_wait: pthread_mutex_unlock
