There are times when the QEMU main loop wishes to drain I/O requests.
Up until now bdrv_drain_all() meant that no new guest I/O will be
processed until the next event loop iteration.

This is no longer true with dataplane since it runs outside the QEMU
global mutex.  The BlockDevOps->drain_threads_cb() interface allows the
device model to drain and stop threads.  Once draining completes, the
QEMU main loop can be sure that no further I/O will take place until
next main loop iteration.
