[libvirt PATCH 2/2] nodedev: update mdevs from the mdevctl thread

[Jonathon Jongsma]

Rather than directly executing mdevctl from the udev event thread when
we determine that we need to re-query, schedule the mdevctl thread to
run. This also helps to coalesce multiple back-to-back updates into a
single one when there are multiple updates in a row or at startup when a
host has a very large number of mdevs.
