Hi,

Static analysis with Coverity has detected a "dead-code" issue with the
following commit:

commit af9c1a44f8dee7a958e07977f24ba40e3c770987
Author: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Sep 24 13:32:18 2020 -0600

    io_uring: process task work in io_uring_register()

The analysis is as follows:

9513                do {
9514                        ret =
wait_for_completion_interruptible(&ctx->ref_comp);

cond_const: Condition ret, taking false branch. Now the value of ret is
equal to 0.

9515                        if (!ret)
9516                                break;
9517                        if (io_run_task_work_sig() > 0)
9518                                continue;
9519                } while (1);
9520
9521                mutex_lock(&ctx->uring_lock);
9522

const: At condition ret, the value of ret must be equal to 0.
dead_error_condition: The condition ret cannot be true.

9523                if (ret) {

Logically dead code (DEADCODE)
dead_error_begin: Execution cannot reach this statement:

9524                        percpu_ref_resurrect(&ctx->refs);
9525                        ret = -EINTR;
9526                        goto out_quiesce;
9527                }
9528        }
9529
