I don't think that it needs to, no.  It's only using the aio retry
functionality to perform a copy of read data into user space.

I have a patch to switch it to using schedule_work() instead:

I've been focusing on other things instead of pushing that to the usb
folks to be tested and merged, though.  I've cc:ed them in case they
want to run with this.
