kvm-83-164.el5_5.30.src.rpm

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix qemu_aio_flush

This is for all kvm-userland-rhel5 and shall fix bug #489205.

----
From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com>

qemu_aio_wait by invoking the bh or one of the aio completion
callbacks, could end up submitting new pending aio, breaking the
invariant that qemu_aio_flush returns only when no pending aio is
outstanding (possibly a problem for migration as such).
