[LTP] [PATCH] openposix: Fix aio_suspend/1-1 completion race

The selected read may finish before the test calls aio_suspend().
Treating this as an unresolved result makes the test depend on I/O
speed and scheduling.
POSIX permits aio_suspend() to return immediately for a completed
request. Drop the racy precondition and retain the completion checks.

Two aio_suspend tests assume that queued I/O cannot complete before
the test checks its status. Depending on I/O speed and scheduling,
this can produce an unresolved result or a false test failure.
In 1-1, early completion is valid: aio_suspend() must return
immediately when a listed request has already completed. Remove the
check that rejects this case.
