Off-topic: I don't understand the difference between the effects of bdrv_drained_begin() and bdrv_subtree_drained_begin(). Both call aio_disable_external(aio_context) and aio_poll(). bdrv_drained_begin() only polls parents and itself, while bdrv_subtree_drained_begin() also polls children. But why does that distinction matter? I wouldn't know when to use one over the other.
Good point. Now I am wondering the same, so it would be great if anyone could clarify it.
