This introduces two new registration opcodes: - IORING_REGISTER_KMBUF_RING: Register a kernel-managed buffer ring - IORING_UNREGISTER_KMBUF_RING: Unregister a kernel-managed buffer ring The existing io_uring_buf_reg structure is extended with a union to support both application-provided buffer rings (pbuf) and kernel-managed buffer rings (kmbuf): - For pbuf rings: ring_addr specifies the user-provided ring address - For kmbuf rings: buf_size specifies the size of each buffer. buf_size must be non-zero and page-aligned. The implementation follows the same pattern as pbuf ring registration, reusing the validation and buffer list allocation helpers introduced in earlier refactoring. The IOBL_KERNEL_MANAGED flag marks buffer lists as kernel-managed for appropriate handling in the I/O path.
