Synchronization of I/O Request Cancellation in KMDF Drivers
Cancellation of I/O requests is inherently asynchronous and requires careful synchronization. Although some drivers can rely on the framework to cancel I/O requests, most drivers are required to implement cancellation code for at least some of their I/O requests.

If your driver always keeps its long-term I/O requests in queues and then completes them quickly, you can avoid any synchronization code. The framework cancels the requests while they are in the queue. After a request has been delivered from the queue, the ...
