Short writes can happen, too, not just short reads. The difference to
aio=native is that the kernel will actually retry the tail of short
requests internally already -- so it is harder to reproduce. But if the
tail of a short request returns an error to the kernel, we will see it
in userspace still. To reproduce this, apply the following patch on top
of the one shown in HEAD^ (again %s/escaped // to apply):

I know this is a bit artificial because to produce this, there must be
an I/O error somewhere anyway, but if it does happen, qemu will
understand it to mean ENOSPC for short writes, which is incorrect. So I
believe we need to resubmit the tail to maybe have it succeed now, or at
least get the correct error code.
Reproducer as before:
$ ./qemu-img create -f raw test.raw 8k
Formatting 'test.raw', fmt=raw size=8192
$ ./qemu-io -f raw -c 'write -P 42 0 8k' test.raw

So short reads already work (because there is code for that), but short
writes incorrectly produce ENOSPC. This patch fixes that by
resubmitting not only the tail of short reads but short writes also.
(And this patch uses the opportunity to make it so qemu_iovec_destroy()
is called only if req->resubmit_qiov.iov is non-NULL. Functionally a
non-op, but this is how the code generally checks whether the
resubmit_qiov has been set up or not.)
