Kevin Wolf acae6f1c4c dma: Avoid reentrancy in DMA transfer handlers
With the conversion of the block layer to coroutines, bdrv_read/write
have changed to run a nested event loop that calls qemu_bh_poll.
Consequently a scheduled BH can be called while a DMA transfer handler
runs and this means that DMA_run becomes reentrant.

Devices haven't been designed to cope with that, so instead of running a
nested transfer handler just wait for the next invocation of the BH from the
main loop.

This fixes some problems with the floppy device.
