Merge tag 'io_uring-5.12-2021-03-05' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A bit of a mix between fallout from the worker change, cleanups and
  reductions now possible from that change, and fixes in general. In
  detail:

   - Fully serialize manager and worker creation, fixing races due to
     that.

   - Clean up some naming that had gone stale.

   - SQPOLL fixes.

   - Fix race condition around task_work rework that went into this
     merge window.

   - Implement unshare. Used for when the original task does unshare(2)
     or setuid/seteuid and friends, drops the original workers and forks
     new ones.

   - Drop the only remaining piece of state shuffling we had left, which
     was cred. Move it into issue instead, and we can drop all of that
     code too.

   - Kill f_op->flush() usage. That was such a nasty hack that we had
     out of necessity, we no longer need it.

   - Following from ->flush() removal, we can also drop various bits of
     ctx state related to SQPOLL and cancelations.

   - Fix an issue with IOPOLL retry, which originally was fallout from a
     filemap change (removing iov_iter_revert()), but uncovered an issue
     with iovec re-import too late.

   - Fix an issue with system suspend.

   - Use xchg() for fallback work, instead of cmpxchg().

   - Properly destroy io-wq on exec.

   - Add create_io_thread() core helper, and use that in io-wq and
     io_uring. This allows us to remove various silly completion events
     related to thread setup.

   - A few error handling fixes.

  This should be the grunt of fixes necessary for the new workers, next
  week should be quieter. We've got a pending series from Pavel on
  cancelations, and how tasks and rings are indexed. Outside of that,
  should just be minor fixes. Even with these fixes, we're still killing
  a net ~80 lines"

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.
