Chardev backends may not handle safely IO events from concurrent threads (they are not thread-safe in general, only the write path is since commit > 9005b2a7589540a3733b3abdcfbccfe7746cd1a1). Better to wake up the chardev from the monitor IO thread if it's being used as the chardev context.
Unify code paths by using a BH in all cases. Drop the now redundant aio_notify() call. Simplify the condition, based on mon->use_io_thread (only QMP so far).
