If the filesystem dio handler understands IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP, we'll get a kiocb->ki_complete() callback with kiocb->dio_complete set. In that case, rather than complete the IO directly through task_work, queue up an intermediate task_work handler that first processes this callback and then immediately completes the request. For XFS, this avoids a punt through a workqueue, which is a lot less efficient and adds latency to lower queue depth (or sync) O_DIRECT writes. Only do this for non-polled IO, as polled IO doesn't need this kind of deferral as it always completes within the task itself. This then avoids a check for deferral in the polled IO completion handler. Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
