By having them share the same space in struct io_cancel_data, it ends up disallowing IORING_ASYNC_CANCEL_FD|IORING_ASYNC_CANCEL_USERDATA from working. Eg you cannot match on both a file and user_data for cancelation purposes. This obviously isn't a common use case as nobody has reported this, but it does result in -ENOENT potentially being returned when trying to match on both, rather than actually doing what the API says it would.
