xfs: remove xfs_cancel_ioend
We currently have code to cancel ioends being built because we change bufferhead state as we build the ioend. On error, this needs to be unwound and so we have cancelling code that walks the buffers on the ioend chain and undoes these state changes. However, the IO submission path already handles state changes for buffers when a submission error occurs, so we don't really need a separate cancel function to do this - we can simply submit the ioend chain with the specific error and it will be cancelled rather than submitted. Hence we can remove the explicit cancel code and just rely on submission to deal with the error correctly.
