The following patch accidentally removed the code for delivering completions for cancelled reads and writes to user space: "[PATCH 04/33] aio: remove retry-based AIO" (https://lore.kernel.org/all/1363883754-27966-5-git-send-email-koverstreet@go...)
Umm, that was more than 10 years ago. What code do you have that is this old, and only noticed that it needs the completions now?
I'd much prefer your older patch to simply always fail the cancelations.
Hm, if no one noticed for that long then I agree that we should probably try and get rid of this.
