Ah, yes. I think monitor_suspend() does not need the notify? Since
if it's sleeping it won't miss the next check in can_read() after all?
Regarding to monitor_resume(), I noticed that I missed the fact that
it's only tailored for HMP before, which seems to be a bigger problem.
Do you agree with a change like this?

Even, I'm thinking about whether I should start to introduce
iothread_notify() now to mask out the IOThread.ctx details.

Will do.
