This is the async_safe_work introduction bit of the Multithread TCG work.
Rebased on current upstream (6169b60285fe1ff730d840a49527e721bfb30899).
It can be cloned here:
http://git.greensocs.com/fkonrad/mttcg.git branch async_work_v2
The first patch introduces a mutex to protect the existing queued_work_*
CPUState members against multiple (concurent) access.
The second patch introduces a tcg_executing_flag which will be 1 when we are
inside cpu_exec(). This is required as safe work need to be sure that's all vCPU
are outside cpu_exec().
The last patch introduces async_safe_work. It allows to add some work which will
be done asynchronously but only when all vCPUs are outside cpu_exec(). The tcg
thread will wait that no vCPUs have any pending safe work before reentering
cpu-exec().
Changes V1 -> V2:
* Release the lock while running the callback for both async and safe work.
What tree do these patches apply to?

Hi,
it applies on :
(6169b60285fe1ff730d840a49527e721bfb30899)
I need to rebase mttcg on it.. But I cleaned up/sent this part for Alvise.
