assert(dbs->acb) is meant to check the return value of io_func per documented in commit 6bee44ea34 ("dma: the passed io_func does not return NULL"). However, there is a chance that after calling aio_context_release(dbs->ctx); the dma_blk_cb function is called before the assertion and dbs->acb is set to NULL again at line 121. Thus when we run assert at line 181 it will fail.
