I still don't agree with the s/Async/Sync/, in my opinion it contradicts
the rest of the comment. If it did cancel the job synchronously, then
the job would be immediately completed, and there would be no need to
wait for a quiescent state nor would the completion callback occur later.

Now that I read it again, the comment is obsolete.

block_job_cancel_sync stalls until block_job_cancel_cb is called, and
that calls the completion callback.

Okay. Best you rephrase the whole comment then instead of changing just
one word.
