If we write into an unwritten extent using AIO we need to complete the AIO
request after the extent conversion has finished.  Without that a read could
race to see see the extent still unwritten and return zeros.   For synchronous
I/O we already take care of that by flushing the xfsconvertd workqueue (which
might be a bit of overkill).

To do that add iocb and result fields to struct xfs_ioend, so that we can
call aio_complete from xfs_end_io after the extent conversion has happened.
Note that we need a new result field as io_error is used for positive errno
values, while the AIO code can return negative error values and positive
transfer sizes.
