When the 'cont' command resumes guest execution the vm change state handlers are invoked. Unfortunately there is no explicit ordering between classic qemu_add_vm_change_state_handler() callbacks. When two layers of code both use vm change state handlers, we don't control which handler runs first.
virtio-scsi with iothreads hits a deadlock when a failed SCSI command is restarted and completes before the iothread is re-initialized. This patch uses the new qdev_add_vm_change_state_handler() API to guarantee that virtio-scsi's virtio change state handler executes before the SCSI bus children. This way DMA is restarted after the iothread has re-initialized.
