[PATCH] dio: remove duplicate bio wait code
Now that we have a single refcount and waiting path we can reuse it in the async 'should_wait' path. It continues to rely on the fragile link between the conditional in dio_complete_aio() which decides to complete the AIO and the conditional in direct_io_worker() which decides to wait and free. By waiting before dropping the reference we stop dio_bio_end_aio() from calling dio_complete_aio() which used to wake up the waiter after seeing the reference count drop to 0. We hoist this wake up into dio_bio_end_aio() which now notices when it's left a single remaining reference that is held by the waiter.
