io_uring: skip request refcounting
As submission references are gone, there is only one initial reference
left. Instead of actually doing atomic refcounting, add a flag
indicating whether we're going to take more refs or doing any other sync
magic. The flag should be set before the request may get used in
parallel.
Together with the previous patch it saves 2 refcount atomics per request
for IOPOLL and IRQ completions, and 1 atomic per req for inline
completions, with some exceptions. In particular, currently, there are
three cases, when the refcounting have to be enabled:
- Polling, including apoll. Because double poll entries takes a ref.
Might get relaxed in the near future.
- Link timeouts, enabled for both, the timeout and the request it's
bound to, because they work in-parallel and we need to synchronise
to cancel one of them on completion.
- When a request gets in io-wq, because it doesn't hold uring_lock and
we need guarantees of submission references.
