We have requests like IORING_OP_FILES_UPDATE that don't go through
->iopoll_list but get completed in place under ->uring_lock, and so
after dropping the lock io_iopoll_check() should expect that some CQEs
might have get completed in a meanwhile.

Currently such events won't be accounted in @nr_events, and the loop
will continue to poll even if there is enough of CQEs. It shouldn't be a
problem as it's not likely to happen and so, but not nice either. Just
return earlier in this case, it should be enough.
