[PATCH] dio: only call aio_complete() after returning -EIOCBQUEUED

Browse Source 
The only time it is safe to call aio_complete() is when the ->ki_retry
function returns -EIOCBQUEUED to the AIO core.  direct_io_worker() has
historically done this by relying on its caller to translate positive return
codes into -EIOCBQUEUED for the aio case.  It did this by trying to keep
conditionals in sync.  direct_io_worker() knew when finished_one_bio() was
going to call aio_complete().  It would reverse the test and wait and free the
dio in the cases it thought that finished_one_bio() wasn't going to.

Not surprisingly, it ended up getting it wrong.  'ret' could be a negative
errno from the submission path but it failed to communicate this to
finished_one_bio().  direct_io_worker() would return < 0, it's callers
wouldn't raise -EIOCBQUEUED, and aio_complete() would be called.  In the
future finished_one_bio()'s tests wouldn't reflect this and aio_complete()
would be called for a second time which can manifest as an oops.

The previous cleanups have whittled the sync and async completion paths down
to the point where we can collapse them and clearly reassert the invariant
that we must only call aio_complete() after returning -EIOCBQUEUED.
direct_io_worker() will only return -EIOCBQUEUED when it is not the last to
drop the dio refcount and the aio bio completion path will only call
aio_complete() when it is the last to drop the dio refcount.
direct_io_worker() can ensure that it is the last to drop the reference count
by waiting for bios to drain.  It does this for sync ops, of course, and for
partial dio writes that must fall back to buffered and for aio ops that saw
errors during submission.

This means that operations that end up waiting, even if they were issued as
aio ops, will not call aio_complete() from dio.  Instead we return the return
code of the operation and let the aio core call aio_complete().  This is
purposely done to fix a bug where AIO DIO file extensions would call
aio_complete() before their callers have a chance to update i_size.

Now that direct_io_worker() is explicitly returning -EIOCBQUEUED its callers
no longer have to translate for it.  XFS needs to be careful not to free
resources that will be used during AIO completion if -EIOCBQUEUED is returned.
 We maintain the previous behaviour of trying to write fs metadata for O_SYNC
aio+dio writes.
