Jens Axboe 1500fed008 kernel: provide create_io_thread() helper
[ Upstream commit cc440e8738 ]

Provide a generic helper for setting up an io_uring worker. Returns a
task_struct so that the caller can do whatever setup is needed, then call
wake_up_new_task() to kick it into gear.

Add a kernel_clone_args member, io_thread, which tells copy_process() to
mark the task with PF_IO_WORKER.

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.
