aio: fix kioctx not being freed after cancellation at exit time
The recent changes overhauling fs/aio.c introduced a bug that results in the kioctx not being freed when outstanding kiocbs are cancelled at exit_aio() time. Specifically, a kiocb that is cancelled has its completion events discarded by batch_complete_aio(), which then fails to wake up the process stuck in free_ioctx(). Fix this by modifying the wait_event() condition in free_ioctx() appropriately. This patch was tested with the cancel operation in the thread based code posted yesterday.
