[PATCH 5.4 22/92] fuse: fix leak of fuse_io_priv

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f1ebdeffc6f325e30e0ddb9f7a70f1370fa4b851 upstream.

exit_aio() is sometimes stuck in wait_for_completion() after aio is issued
with direct IO and the task receives a signal.

The reason is failure to call ->ki_complete() due to a leaked reference to
fuse_io_priv. This happens in fuse_async_req_send() if
fuse_simple_background() returns an error (e.g. -EINTR).

In this case the error value is propagated via io->err, so return success
to not confuse callers.

This issue is tracked as a virtio-fs issue:
