stream_complete() skips the work of rewriting the backing file if the job was cancelled, if data->reached_end is false, or if there was an error detected (non-zero data->ret) during the streaming. But note that in stream_run(), data->reached_end is only set if the loop ran to completion, and data->ret is only 0 in two cases: either the loop ran to completion (possibly by cancellation, but stream_complete checks for that), or we took an early goto out because there is no bs->backing. Thus, we can preserve the same semantics without the use of reached_end, by merely checking for bs->backing (and logically, if there was no backing file, streaming is a no-op, so there is no backing file to rewrite).
