 * Dispatch I/O provides both stream and random access asynchronous read and

 * @function dispatch_io_write
 * Schedule a write operation for asynchronous execution on the specified I/O
 * channel. The I/O handler is enqueued one or more times depending on the
 * general load of the system and the policy specified on the I/O channel.
 *
 * Any data remaining to be written to the I/O channel is described by the
 * dispatch data object passed to the I/O handler. This object will be
 * automatically released by the system when the I/O handler returns. It is the
 * responsibility of the application to retain, concatenate or copy the data
 * object if it is needed after the I/O handler returns.
 *
 * Dispatch I/O handlers are not reentrant. The system will ensure that no new
 * I/O handler instance is invoked until the previously enqueued handler block
 * has returned.
 *
 * An invocation of the I/O handler with the done flag set indicates that the
 * write operation is complete and that the handler will not be enqueued again.
 *
 * If an unrecoverable error occurs on the I/O channel's underlying file
 * descriptor, the I/O handler will be enqueued with the done flag set, the
 * appropriate error code and an object containing the data that could not be
 * written.
 *
 * An invocation of the I/O handler with the done flag set and an error code of
 * zero indicates that the data was fully written to the channel.
 *
 * @param channel	The dispatch I/O channel on which to write the data.
 * @param offset	The offset relative to the channel position from which
 *			to start writing (only for DISPATCH_IO_RANDOM).
 * @param data		The data to write to the I/O channel. The data object
 *			will be retained by the system until the write operation
 *			is complete.
 * @param queue		The dispatch queue to which the I/O handler should be
 *			submitted.
 * @param io_handler	The I/O handler to enqueue when data has been delivered.
 *	param done	A flag indicating whether the operation is complete.
 *	param data	An object of the data remaining to be
 *			written to the I/O channel as part of this write
 *			operation, or NULL.
 *	param error	An errno condition for the write operation or zero
 *			if the write was successful.
