Create a simple helper that returns the size of the SQE. The SQE could
have two size, depending of the flags.

If IO_URING_SETUP_SQE128 flag is set, then return a double SQE,
otherwise returns the sizeof of io_uring_sqe (64 bytes).

<title>io_uring: reduce scheduling due to tw</title>

Every task_work will try to wake the task to be executed, which causes
excessive scheduling and additional overhead. For some tw it's
justified, but others won't do much but post a single CQE.

When a task waits for multiple cqes, every such task_work will wake it
up. Instead, the task may give a hint about how many cqes it waits for,
io_req_local_work_add() will compare against it and skip wake ups
if #cqes + #tw is not enough to satisfy the waiting condition. Task_work
that uses the optimisation should be simple enough and never post more
than one CQE. It's also ignored for non DEFER_TASKRUN rings.

For task works we're passing around a bool pointer for whether the
current ring is locked or not, let's wrap it in a structure, that
will make it more opaque preventing abuse and will also help us
to pass more info in the future if needed.

<title>io_uring: mark task TASK_RUNNING before handling resume/task work</title>

<id>2f2bb1ffc9983e227424d0787289da5483b0c74f</id>
<content type='text'>
Just like for task_work, set the task mode to TASK_RUNNING before doing
any potential resume work. We're not holding any locks at this point,
but we may have already set the task state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE in
preparation for going to sleep waiting for events. Ensure that we set it
back to TASK_RUNNING if we have work to process, to avoid warnings on
calling blocking operations with !TASK_RUNNING.

<title>io_uring: Enable KASAN for request cache</title>

<content type='text'>
Every io_uring request is represented by struct io_kiocb, which is
cached locally by io_uring (not SLAB/SLUB) in the list called
submit_state.freelist. This patch simply enabled KASAN for this free
list.

This list is initially created by KMEM_CACHE, but later, managed by
io_uring. This patch basically poisons the objects that are not used
(i.e., they are the free list), and unpoisons it when the object is
allocated/removed from the list.

Touching these poisoned objects while in the freelist will cause a KASAN
warning.
