To address this, prevent the NFS direct I/O engine from completing async iocbs when the forward path returns an error without starting any I/O. This fix appears to survive ^C during both "xfstest no. 208" and "fsx -Z." It's likely this bug has existed for a very long while, as we are seeing very similar symptoms in OEL 5. Copying stable.
