Umm, I don't get this. Looking at the ->end_io callback it has been
always called with i_alloc_sem held. It's only aio_complete() which will
be called with i_alloc_sem held after your changes. Or am I missing
something?
Moreover the async testing you do does not seem to be completely right.
dio->is_async is a flag that controls whether dio code waits for IO to be
completed or not. In particular it is not set for AIO that spans beyond
current i_size so it does not seem to be exactly what you need (at least
for ext4 it isn't). I think that is_sync_kiocb() is a test that should be
used to recognize AIO - and that has an advantage that you don't have to
pass the is_async flag around.
