i8257: rewrite DMA_schedule to avoid hooking into the CPU loop
The i8257 DMA controller uses an idle bottom half, which by default does not cause the main loop to exit. Therefore, the DMA_schedule function is there to ensure that the CPU relinquishes the iothread mutex to the iothread. However, this is not enough since the iothread will call aio_compute_timeout() and go to sleep again. In the iothread world, forcing execution of the idle bottom half is much simpler, and only requires a call to qemu_notify_event(). Do it, removing the need for the "cpu_request_exit" pseudo-irq. The next patch will remove it. Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
