It was merely a workaround and the real fix is done now.
This reverts commit ef845c3bf421290153154635dc18eaa677cecb43.

When the synchronous read and write functions were dropped, they were replaced
by generic emulation functions. Unfortunately, these emulation functions don't
provide the same semantics as the original functions did.
The original bdrv_read would mean that we read some data synchronously and that
we won't be interrupted during this read. The latter assumption is no longer
true with the emulation function which needs to use qemu_aio_poll and therefore
allows the callback of any other concurrent AIO request to be run during the
read. Which in turn means that (meta)data read earlier could have changed and
be invalid now. qcow2 is not prepared to work in this way and it's just scary
how many places there are where other requests could run.
I'm not sure yet where exactly it breaks, but you'll see breakage with virtio
on qcow2 with a backing file. Providing synchronous functions again fixes the
problem for me.

This patch increases the maximum qcow2 cluster size to 2 MB. Starting with 128k
clusters, L2 tables span 2 GB or more of virtual disk space, causing 32 bit
truncation and wraparound of signed integers. Therefore some variables need to
use a larger data type.
While being at reviewing data types, change some integers that are used for
array indices to unsigned. In some places they were checked against some upper
limit but not for negative values. This could avoid potential segfaults with
corrupted qcow2 images.

Problem: Our file sys-queue.h is a copy of the BSD file, but there are
some additions and it's not entirely compatible. Because of that, there have
been conflicts with system headers on BSD systems. Some hacks have been
introduced in the commits 15cc9235840a22c289edbe064a9b3c19c5f49896,
f40d753718c72693c5f520f0d9899f6e50395e94,
96555a96d724016e13190b28cffa3bc929ac60dc and
3990d09adf4463eca200ad964cc55643c33feb50 but the fixes were fragile.
Solution: Avoid the conflict entirely by renaming the functions and the
file. Revert the previous hacks.

When two AIO requests write to the same cluster, and this cluster is
unallocated, currently both requests allocate a new cluster and the second one
merges the first one when it is completed. This means an cluster allocation, a
read and a cluster deallocation which cause some overhead. If we simply let the
second request wait until the first one is done, we improve overall performance
with AIO requests (specifially, qcow2/virtio combinations).
This patch maintains a list of in-flight requests that have allocated new
clusters. A second request touching the same cluster is limited so that it
either doesn't touch the allocation of the first request (so it can have a
non-overlapping allocation) or it waits for the first request to complete.

The qcow2 source is now split into several more manageable files. During the
conversion quite some functions that were static before needed to be changed to
be global to make the source compile again.
We were lucky enough not to get name conflicts with these additional global
names, but they are not nice. This patch adds a qcow2_ prefix to all of the
global functions in qcow2.

qcow2-cluster.c contains all functions related to the management of guest
clusters, i.e. what the guest sees on its virtual disk. This code is about
mapping these guest clusters to host clusters in the image file using the
two-level lookup tables.

qcow2-refcount.c contains all functions which are related to cluster
allocation and management in the image file. A large part of this is the
reference counting of these clusters.
Also a header file qcow2.h is introduced which will contain the interface of
the split qcow2 modules.
