block: Fix early failure in multiwrite
bdrv_aio_writev may call the callback immediately (and it will commonly do so in error cases). Current code doesn't consider this. For details see the comment added by this patch. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> (cherry picked from commit 453f9a1652629e5805995b165be2e634c8487139) Conflicts: block.c Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
