Looks like all callers are following that with "if returned true,
fput(something)".  Does it really make any sense to keep that struct
file * in different fields?

Wait a sec...  What ordering do we want for
	* call(s) of ->ki_complete
	* call (if any) of ->ki_cancel
	* dropping reference to struct file
and what are the expected call chains for all of those?
