vCPU execution should be suspended when new BH is scheduled.
This is needed to avoid guest timeouts caused by the long cycles
of the execution. In replay mode execution may hang when
vCPU sleeps and block event comes to the queue.
This patch adds notification which wakes up vCPU or interrupts
execution of guest code.

At least aio_bh_schedule_oneshot_full should have the same effect, so
should this be done at a lower level, in aio_bh_enqueue() or even
aio_notify()?

Not sure about aio_notify. It can operate with different contexts.
Can some of them be not related to the VM state?
Moving the notification to aio_bh_enqueue.

Moving this code to aio_notify breaks the tests.
