From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>
Subject: fs/direct-io.c: fix possible use-after-free with AIO

Running AIO is pinning inode in memory using file reference.  Once AIO is
completed using aio_complete(), file reference is put and inode can be
freed from memory.  So we have to be sure that calling aio_complete() is
the last thing we do with the inode.
