The lifecycle of block_queue_pool acbs should be like this:
When a request is queued we need a BlockQueue acb because we have no
real acb yet. So we get an acb from block_queue_pool.
If the acb is cancelled before being dispatched we need to release the
acb and remove the request from the queue. (This patch does not
remove the request from the queue on cancel.)
When the acb is dispatched we need to keep track of the real acb (e.g.
from qcow2). The caller will only ever see our acb because there is
no way to give them the pointer to the new acb after dispatch. That
means we need to keep the our acb alive for the entire lifetime of the
request. (This patch currently releases our acb when the request is
dispatched.)
If the acb is cancelled after being dispatched we need to first cancel
the real acb and then release our acb.
When the acb is dispatched we need to pass qemu_block_queue_callback
as the cb function to handler. Inside qemu_block_queue_callback we
invoke the request cb and then release our acb. This is how our acb
should be freed.

It would be simpler to define BlockQueueAIOCB and using it as our acb
instead of managing an extra BlockIORequest structure. That way you
don't need to worry about extra mallocs and frees.

This function can be static.
