[RFC 1/1] io_uring: pin context while queueing deferred tw

[RFC 1/1] io_uring: pin context while queueing deferred tw

[Pavel Begunkov]

Unlike normal tw, nothing prevents deferred tw to be executed right
after an tw item added to ->work_llist in io_req_local_work_add(). For
instance, the waiting task may get waken up by CQ posting or a normal
tw. Thus we need to pin the ring for the rest of io_req_local_work_add()

Damn, the subj is wrong, it's not an RFC. Same with the other patch
