Subject: [PATCH] aio: fix request cancelling

This this patch fix kiocb_cancel() function.
If cancel() function ends successfully:
- kiocb request is removed from ctx->active_reqs,
- new event is added to ring buffer (this behavior is described in comment
  in io_cancel function, but was not implemented)
- kiocb_free function is called
- percpu_ref_put is called for ctx->reqs refcount

To do this, part of io_complete function, responsible for adding new event
to ring buffer, was moved into new function named add_event().

This patch solves problem related with lack of possibility to call
aio_complete() from cancel callback. It was because it needs to lock
ctx->ctx_lock which is always locked before kiocb_cancel() call. So there
was no way to complete request properly. Now, after cancel() function call,
request and related resources are freed, and event is added to ring buffer,
so there is no need to call aio_complete() in cancel callback function.
