ceph: Asynchronous IO support
The basic idea of AIO support is simple, just call kiocb::ki_complete()
in OSD request's complete callback. But there are several special cases.
when IO span multiple objects, we need to wait until all OSD requests
are complete, then call kiocb::ki_complete(). Error handling in this case
is tricky too. For simplify, AIO both span multiple objects and extends
i_size are not allowed.
Another special case is check EOF for reading (other client can write to
the file and extend i_size concurrently). For simplify, the direct-IO/AIO
code path does do the check, fallback to normal syn read instead.
