Subject: [PATCH v1] io_uring: Fix memory leak if file setup fails.

If `get_unused_fd_flags` files fails (either in setting up `ctx` as
`tctx->last` or `get_unused_fd_flags`) `ctx` will never be freed.

I very well may be missing something (or there may be a double
free if the failure is after `get_unused_fd_flags`) but looks
to me to be a memory leak.
