[PATCH] AIO/DIO oops fix

The problem here is, finished_one_bio() shouldn't call aio_complete() since
no work has been done.  I have a fix for this - can you verify this ?  I am
not really comfortable with this "tweaking".  (I am not really sure about
IO errors like EIO etc.  - if they can lead to calling aio_complete()
twice)

Fix is to call aio_complete() ONLY if there is something to report.  Note
the we don't update dio->result with any error codes from get_user_pages(),
they just passed as "ret" value from do_direct_IO().
