Hi,

This patchset gets rid of using llist for handling task_work, for both
local and normal task_work. Instead of a lockless list, a normal
io_wq_work_list is used and protected by a spinlock. I've done some
benchmarking with this, and I only see wins with this - the act of
adding or iterating task_work is the same cost, but we get rid of the
need to reverse the task_work list, which can be substantial for bursty
applications or just generally busy task_work usages.

Patch 2 implements io_wq_work_list handling for deferred task_work, and
patch 4 does the same for normal task_work. Patch 6 then also switches
SQPOLL to use this scheme, which eliminates the passing around of
io_wq_work_node for its retry logic.

Outside of cleaning up this code, it also enables us to potentially
implement task_work run capping for normal task_work in the future.
