Hallo Hanna,

it has been a long time where I was inactive in Qemu development and I should 
have checked this earlier, but it seems that this patch accidentally broke 
libnfs usage with at least qemu cmdline tools like qemu-img. Again, sorry for 
not testing this earlier, but I have only recently entered the Qemu show again.

I found this glitch while working on a patch to include libnfs v6 support in 
qemu to avoid dropping libnfs support.

A simple call like:

qemu-img create -f qcow2 nfs://nfsserver/image.qcow2 10G

hangs forever in the second write request.

I have not confirmed, but this might also hold true for libiscsi which 
internally is quite identical (at least it was 3 years ago ;-))

You are right, the coroutine can only yield once, but it seems that the bottom 
half logic is still needed.
Maybe you have an idea why? I remember that we had this differently first and 
implemented it after Stefan pointed out that it might be needed.
I will try to find the thread about this discussion.

This patch here restores functionality for me:
