No - and this code is _really_ confusing. If we get an error we can
return it in two different ways:

1) By making the io_submit() call fail
2) Through the io_event that aio_complete() delivers

Note the return 0 coming after the aio_complete() call - we don't want
to return ret because then we'd be delivering an error twice.
