Coverity reported:
CID 1611806: Concurrent data access violations (BAD_CHECK_OF_WAIT_COND)
A wait is performed without a loop. If there is a spurious wakeup, the
condition may not be satisfied.
Fix this by checking ->state for VFIO_PROXY_CLOSED in a loop.
Resolves: Coverity CID 1611806
Fixes: 0b3d881a ("vfio-user: implement message receive infrastructure")

Is this definitely the right patch? The v2 posted at
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20250711124500.1611628-1-john.levon@nutanix.com/
contains the updated commit message mentioning the rename of the
callback, whereas this one doesn't?
