4c7a47cf0e qm: IO thread: be more precise about how QEMU handles IO
Reported in the community forum[0].

The setting can already help with a single disk. Without the option,
there is not one IO thread as the old wording suggested, but IO is
handled in the main event loop or vCPU threads (see the kvm man page).
