Sure,

BTW, found "io_uring: make io_double_put_req() use normal completion
path" in the tree. And it do exactly the same, what my patch was doing,
the one which "blowed" the link test :)

I'd add there "req->flags | REQ_F_FAIL_LINK" in-between failed
io_req_defer() and calling io_double_put_req(). (in 2 places)
Otherwise, even though a request failed, it will enqueue the rest
of its link with io_queue_async_work().
