Subject: [PATCH] coro: remove io_ack from scheduler

The logic here is not sound and actually is the root cause for #31
The yield enough should be enough for valid io submission, in theory if
the task is cancelled immediately something weird could happen.. It is
better to implement #44 to make sure no such bug exists and are catch
early.

Fixes #31
