There is a deadlock in the remote driver's dispatch code for
domain events.
If your callback triggers a API call that does an RPC call, then the driver
will deadlock. The fix is the same as we did in the QEMU driver. We releae
the lock & re-aquire it, with some extreme cleverness to protect against
people deleting callbacks during the course of dispatch
Tricky ! Patch looks fine, ACK
