This looks better, but there are still some issues:
The patch arrived here with tabs expanded into spaces, so it doesn't apply.
The EAGAIN fix by Mingming Cao is obviously incomplete, as I've
mentioned in a separate message to linux-aio. I think it would be
better if you would leave this out of this patch and let it be handled
separately.
async_poll_complete() is dead code and should be removed (this was an
issue in the original 2.4.19 code).
You should not reintroduce the ki_data member of struct iocb. Insead
you should use the existing private member of struct iocb.
In aio_abi.h, you should adjust the preceeding comment to remove mention
of IOCB_CMD_POLL.
Incidentally, this patch depends on the sys_io_cancel() portion of the
patch I posted yesterday in order for cancellation to return the correct
result to user space.
