USB: gadgetfs AIO tweaks
This patch (as837) fixes several mistakes in the AIO interface of the gadgetfs driver: The ki_retry method is not supposed to do a put on the kiocb. The extra call to aio_put_req() causes memory corruption. (Note: This call was removed before, by patch as691, and then mysteriously re-introduced later.) Even if a read transfer is cancelled, we can and should send to the user all the data that did manage to get transferred. Testing for AIO cancellation in the I/O completion handler is both racy and (now) unnecessary. aio_complete() does its own checking, in a safe manner.
