Ah, looks like for large multiprocessor machines, /proc/sys/fs/aio-max-nr is too low and causing the setup to fail because of the low default for so many concurrent stressors.
I recommend writing 1000 * number of CPUs into /proc/sys/fs/aio-max-nr before running the aiol test. That should give it enough async i/o events in the kernel to run to completion.
