Bottom halves are supposed to not complete until the next iteration of the main
loop. This is very important to ensure that guests can not cause stack
overflows in the block driver code. Right now, if you attempt to schedule a
bottom half within a bottom half callback, you will enter an infinite loop.
This patch uses the same logic that we use for the IOHandler loop to make the
bottom half processing robust in list manipulation while in a callback.
This patch also introduces idle scheduling for bottom halves. qemu_bh_poll()
returns an indication of whether any bottom halves were successfully executed.
qemu_aio_wait() uses this to immediately return if a bottom half was executed
instead of waiting for a completion notification.
qemu_bh_schedule_idle() works around this by not reporting the callback has
run in the qemu_bh_poll loop. qemu_aio_wait() probably needs some refactoring
but that would require a larger code audit. idle scheduling seems like a good
compromise.

Replace signalfd with signal handler/pipe. There is no way to interrupt
the CPU execution loop when a file descriptor becomes readable. This
results in a large performance regression in sparc emulation during
bootup.
This patch switches us to signal handler/pipe which was originally
suggested by Ian Jackson. The signal handler lets us interrupt the
CPU emulation loop while the write to a pipe lets us avoid the
select/signal race condition.

and qemu-common.h to osdep.h.
Include this header in translate-op.c.
Make sure it's included first in darwin-user/qemu.h.
To avoid discarded inlining bug, define inline as always_inline and
always_inline as (( attribute (always_inline) )) __inline__.

Remove QEMU_TOOL. Replace with QEMU_IMG and NEED_CPU_H.
Avoid linking qemu-img against whole system emulatior.
