As an optimization, the buffer I/O count is incremented only once on the first async I/O for a given hold cycle of a buffer and decremented once the buffer is released to the LRU (or freed). xfs_buf_ioacct_dec() has an ASSERT() check for an XBF_ASYNC buffer, but we have one or two corner cases where a buffer can be submitted for I/O multiple times via different methods in a single hold cycle. If an async I/O occurs first, the I/O count is incremented. If a sync I/O occurs before the hold count drops, XBF_ASYNC is cleared by the time the I/O count is decremented. Remove the async assert check from xfs_buf_ioacct_dec() as this is a perfectly valid scenario. For the purposes of I/O accounting, we really only care about the buffer async state at I/O submission time.
