Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.8 06/14] io_uring/sqpoll: work around a potential audit memory leak

[ Upstream commit c4ce0ab27646f4206a9eb502d6fe45cb080e1cae ]

kmemleak complains that there's a memory leak related to connect
handling:

unreferenced object 0xffff0001093bdf00 (size 128):
comm "iou-sqp-455", pid 457, jiffies 4294894164
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
02 00 fa ea 7f 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................

[<00000000d999b491>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

which can can happen if:

1) The command type does something on the prep side that triggers an
   audit call.
2) The thread hasn't done any operations before this that triggered
   an audit call inside ->issue(), where we have audit_uring_entry()
   and audit_uring_exit().

Work around this by issuing a blanket NOP operation before the SQPOLL
does anything.
