Looks ok. Minor comment:

Using an ioend type to "0" is not very obvious given all the other
uses have a defined type. I know that this converted to IO_UNWRITTEN
in IO completion if neceessary, but perhaps a IO_DIRECT type might
be better just to document it? Or perhaps a comment stating why 0 is
OK to use here?

Everything else looks fine, so:
