Pavel Begunkov 1a38ffc9cb io_uring: NULL files dereference by SQPOLL
SQPOLL task may find sqo_task->files == NULL and
__io_sq_thread_acquire_files() would leave it unset, so following
fget_many() and others try to dereference NULL and fault. Propagate
an error files are missing.

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.
