If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jan Kara commit 091e26dfc156aeb3b73bc5c5f277e433ad39331c upstream. Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference. Once AIO is completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can be freed from memory. So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete() is the last thing we do with the inode.
