[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH 14/19] block: Generalise and optimise COR serialisation

[Kevin Wolf]

Change the API so that specific requests can be marked serialising. Only
these requests are checked for overlaps then.

This means that during a Copy on Read operation, not all requests
overlapping other requests are serialised any more, but only those that
actually overlap with the specific COR request.

Also remove COR from function and variable names because this
functionality can be useful in other contexts.
