Pull more io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
 "Mostly just a set of fixes in here, or little changes that didn't get
  included in the initial pull request. This contains:

   - Move the SQPOLL napi polling outside the submission lock (Olivier)

   - Rename of the "copy buffers" API that got added in the 6.12 merge
     window. There's really no copying going on, it's just referencing
     the buffers. After a bit of consideration, decided that it was
     better to simply rename this to avoid potential confusion (me)

   - Shrink struct io_mapped_ubuf from 48 to 32 bytes, by changing it to
     start + len tracking rather than having start / end in there, and
     by removing the caching of folio_mask when we can just calculate it
     from folio_shift when we need it (me)

   - Fixes for the SQPOLL affinity checking (me, Felix)

   - Fix for how cqring waiting checks for the presence of task_work.
     Just check it directly rather than check for a specific
     notification mechanism (me)

   - Tweak to how request linking is represented in tracing (me)

   - Fix a syzbot report that deliberately sets up a huge list of
     overflow entries, and then hits rcu stalls when flushing this list.
     Just check for the need to preempt, and drop/reacquire locks in the
     loop. There's no state maintained over the loop itself, and each
     entry is yanked from head-of-list (me)"

there are many small reasons justifying this change.

1. busy poll must be performed even on rings that have no iopoll and no
   new sqe. It is quite possible that a ring configured for inbound
   traffic with multishot be several hours without receiving new request
   submissions
2. NAPI busy poll does not perform any credential validation
3. If the thread is awaken by task work, processing the task work is
   prioritary over NAPI busy loop. This is why a second loop has been
   created after the io_sq_tw() call instead of doing the busy loop in
   __io_sq_thread() outside its credential acquisition block.

Putting the cpumask on the stack is deprecated for a long time (since
2d3854a37e8), as these can be big. Given that, change the on-stack
allocation of allowed_mask to be dynamically allocated.

A recent commit ensured that SQPOLL cannot be setup with a CPU that
isn't in the current tasks cpuset, but it also dropped testing whether
the CPU is valid in the first place. Without that, if a task passes in
a CPU value that is too high, the following KASAN splat can get
triggered:

The submit queue polling threads are userland threads that just never
exit to the userland. When creating the thread with IORING_SETUP_SQ_AFF,
the affinity of the poller thread is set to the cpu specified in
sq_thread_cpu. However, this CPU can be outside of the cpuset defined
by the cgroup cpuset controller. This violates the rules defined by the
cpuset controller and is a potential issue for realtime applications.

In b7ed6d8ffd6 we fixed the default affinity of the poller thread, in
case no explicit pinning is required by inheriting the one of the
creating task. In case of explicit pinning, the check is more
complicated, as also a cpu outside of the parent cpumask is allowed.
We implemented this by using cpuset_cpus_allowed (that has support for
cgroup cpusets) and testing if the requested cpu is in the set.

reverse the order of the element evaluation in an if statement.

for many users that are not using iopoll, the iopoll_list will always
evaluate to false after having made a memory access whereas to_submit is
very likely already loaded in a register.

There's a debug check in io_sq_thread_park() checking if it's the SQPOLL
thread itself calling park. KCSAN warns about this, as we should not be
reading sqd-&gt;thread outside of sqd-&gt;lock.

Just silence this with data_race(). The pointer isn't used for anything
but this debug check.

<title>introduce fd_file(), convert all accessors to it.</title>

	For any changes of struct fd representation we need to
turn existing accesses to fields into calls of wrappers.
Accesses to struct fd::flags are very few (3 in linux/file.h,
1 in net/socket.c, 3 in fs/overlayfs/file.c and 3 more in
explicit initializers).
	Those can be dealt with in the commit converting to
new layout; accesses to struct fd::file are too many for that.
	This commit converts (almost) all of f.file to
fd_file(f).  It's not entirely mechanical ('file' is used as
a member name more than just in struct fd) and it does not
even attempt to distinguish the uses in pointer context from
those in boolean context; the latter will be eventually turned
into a separate helper (fd_empty()).

	NOTE: mass conversion to fd_empty(), tempting as it
might be, is a bad idea; better do that piecewise in commit
that convert from fdget...() to CLASS(...).

[conflicts in fs/fhandle.c, kernel/bpf/syscall.c, mm/memcontrol.c
caught by git; fs/stat.c one got caught by git grep]
[fs/xattr.c conflict]

<title>io_uring/sqpoll: ensure that normal task_work is also run timely</title>

With the move to private task_work, SQPOLL neglected to also run the
normal task_work, if any is pending. This will eventually get run, but
we should run it with the private task_work to ensure that things like
a final fput() is processed in a timely fashion.
