Jens Axboe f254ac04c8 io_uring: enable lookup of links holding inflight files
When a process exits, we cancel whatever requests it has pending that
are referencing the file table. However, if a link is holding a
reference, then we cannot find it by simply looking at the inflight
list.

Enable checking of the poll and timeout list to find the link, and
cancel it appropriately.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
