The synchronous path goes through vfs_iter_read() and vfs_iter_write() which check for them but the aio path doesn't. So a backing file without them calls a NULL pointer on its first I/O. Refuse such files when configuring the device. On the synchronous path every read or write that needed the missing method failed with EINVAL anyway.
