Hi,

Changes in v2:
- New libxl__ev_lock, which actually respect lock hierarchy (it's outside of
  CTX_LOCK).
- some smaller changes detailed in patch notes.

This patch series fix libxl_cdrom_insert to work with a depriviledge QEMU. For
that, we need to use libxl__ev_qmp.  For that, we need a new lock because
userdata_lock can't be used anymore.

FYI: I don't think that enough yet to migrate a depriviledged QEMU. We may need
to open disks/cdrom in libxl before starting QEMU, similar to what this patch
series do when inserting a new cdrom.

Thanks for this and sorry for blocking you for so long!

I think this is basically ready to go.  I had some trivial comments on
3/.  After we've had a conversation about that, I guess you might
want to repost just that one patch rather than all 9.  Up to you.

Regards,
Ian.
