Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] io_uring: Add support for napi_busy_poll
Precedence: bulk

The sqpoll thread can be used for performing the napi busy poll in a
similar way that it does io polling for file systems supporting direct
access bypassing the page cache.

The other way that io_uring can be used for napi busy poll is by
calling io_uring_enter() to get events.

If the user specify a timeout value, it is distributed between polling
and sleeping by using the systemwide setting
/proc/sys/net/core/busy_poll.

v2:
 * Evaluate list_empty(&ctx->napi_list) outside io_napi_busy_loop() to keep
   __io_sq_thread() execution as fast as possible
 * In io_cqring_wait(), move up the sig block to avoid needless computation
   if the block exits the function
 * In io_cqring_wait(), protect ctx->napi_list from race condition by
   splicing it into a local list
 * In io_cqring_wait(), allow busy polling when uts is missing
 * Fix kernel test robot issues
v3:
 * Fix do_div() type mismatch warning
 * Reduce uring_lock contention by creating a spinlock for protecting
   napi_list
 * Support correctly MULTISHOT poll requests
