Pavel Begunkov ef9865a442 io_uring: don't forget to task-cancel drained reqs
If there is a long-standing request of one task locking up execution of
deferred requests, and the defer list contains requests of another task
(all files-less), then a potential execution of __io_uring_task_cancel()
by that another task will sleep until that first long-standing request
completion, and that may take long.

E.g.
tsk1: req1/read(empty_pipe) -> tsk2: req(DRAIN)
Then __io_uring_task_cancel(tsk2) waits for req1 completion.

It seems we even can manufacture a complicated case with many tasks
sharing many rings that can lock them forever.

Cancel deferred requests for __io_uring_task_cancel() as well.

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.
