[PATCH v3 6/6] vfio: ccw: serialize the write system calls

[Pierre Morel]

When the user program is QEMU we rely on the QEMU lock to serialize
the calls to the driver.

In the general case we need to make sure that two data transfer are
not started at the same time.
It would in the current implementation resul in a overwriting of the
IO region.

We also need to make sure a clear or a halt started after a data
transfer do not win the race agains the data transfer.
Which would result in the data transfer being started after the
halt/clear.
