Drivers can have internal request sources that generate IO, like the need_check_timer in QED. Since we want quiesced periods that contain nested event loops in block layer, we need to have a way to disable such event sources. Block drivers must implement the "bdrv_drain" callback if it has any internal sources that can generate I/O activity, like a timer or a worker thread (even in a library) that can schedule QEMUBH in an asynchronous callback. Update the comments of bdrv_drain and bdrv_drained_begin accordingly. Like bdrv_requests_pending(), we should consider all the children of bs. Before, the while loop just works, as bdrv_requests_pending() already tracks its children; now we mustn't miss the callback, so recurse down explicitly.
