Absolutely, yes.
Initially I thought to do it in a later phase, but if the consensus is to start
already to put stuff in place,
I would be happy to do it.
It would make things easier to understand, currently it is confusing to
remember whether a component is
user-mode only, softmmu, tcg-only, ...

Yes, it is just below the very similar function it is derived from (the
non-timed variant).

Here I tried to stay close to the existing code/convention for
qemu_cond_wait_iothread,
which together with other similar prototypes is in main_loop.h and implemented
in cpus.c
I agree that the current include files are not streamlined, but it would be
surprising to find
qemu_cond_wait_iothread and qemu_cond_timedwait_iothread in separate places.
I noticed however that while the implementation is close to its sister function,
I put the prototype in a non-obvious place, I think I should move it just below
qemu_cond_wait_iothread.
