The iSCSI driver used AIO, however it has been painful:
- not rock solid
- no unified event notification
- no page-cache AIO support
- no AIO FSYNC support
The first issue is critical and the third and forth issues hurt
scalability and performance, though we can live with the third one.
I added new backing store code, bs_sync, which uses pthread and
synchronous I/Os though I don't like to play with pthread.
Now the iSCSI driver uses bs_sync code by default. Please test it.
