[PATCH v2 6.6] io_uring/rw: ensure reissue path is correctly handled for IOPOLL

[PATCH v2 6.6] io_uring/rw: ensure reissue path is correctly handled for IOPOLL

[Sumanth Gavini]

commit bcb0fda3c2da9fe4721d3e73d80e778c038e7d27 upstream.

The IOPOLL path posts CQEs when the io_kiocb is marked as completed,
so it cannot rely on the usual retry that non-IOPOLL requests do for
read/write requests.

If -EAGAIN is received and the request should be retried, go through
the normal completion path and let the normal flush logic catch it and
reissue it, like what is done for !IOPOLL reads or writes.

Fixes: d803d123948f ("io_uring/rw: handle -EAGAIN retry at IO completion time")

We can not take patches ONLY for older kernel trees and not newer ones,
otherwise you will have a regression when moving to a newer one.  I've
dropped this now, please submit for all relevant trees.

thanks,
