Please don't convert fprintfs to error_report in the block layer yet.
error_report() uses the cur_mon global variable in a way that is not
thread-safe:
void error_vprintf(const char *fmt, va_list ap)
{
if (cur_mon && !monitor_cur_is_qmp()) {
monitor_vprintf(cur_mon, fmt, ap);
This is a time-of-check-to-time-of-use race condition.
monitor_cur_is_qmp() itself also suffers from a race condition.
I guess we haven't seen issues because error_report() is rarely called.
