Subject: [PATCH 7/9] aio: add delayed cancel support

The upcoming aio poll support would like to be able to complete the
iocb inline from the cancellation context, but that would cause
a lock order reversal.  Add support for optionally moving the cancelation
outside the context lock to avoid this reversal.
