CoMutex has poor performance when lock contention is high. The tracked
requests list is accessed frequently and performance suffers in QEMU
multi-queue block layer scenarios.
It is not necessary to use CoMutex for the requests lock. The lock is
always released across coroutine yield operations. It is held for
relatively short periods of time and it is not beneficial to yield when
the lock is held by another coroutine.
Change the lock type from CoMutex to QemuMutex to improve multi-queue
block layer performance. fio randread bs=4k iodepth=64 with 4 IOThreads
handling a virtio-blk device with 8 virtqueues improves from 254k to
517k IOPS (+203%). Full benchmark results and configuration details are
