Thanks!

I don't care much, but without compiler's help always have troubles
finding and distinguishing something as generic as "list".

BTW, I thought out how to bring it down to 3 cache lines, but that would
require taking io_wq_work out of io_kiocb and kmalloc'ing it on demand.
And there should also be a bunch of nice side effects like improving apoll.
