That's good, but I did not find it, have you sent it to the open list?
IMO, there's no need to check the return value of kill_ioctx(), because
context can be marked as DEAD only by io_destroy(), and io_destroy() is
on the block mode. So if we run into the calling of kill_ioctx() in
exit_aio, the context is surely valid.

Thanks,
Gu
