io_uring: Fix registered ring file refcount leak

Currently, io_uring_unreg_ringfd() (which cleans up registered rings) is
only called on exit, but __io_uring_free (which frees the tctx in which the
registered ring pointers are stored) is also called on execve (via
begin_new_exec -> io_uring_task_cancel -> __io_uring_cancel ->
io_uring_cancel_generic -> __io_uring_free).

This means: A process going through execve while having registered rings
will leak references to the rings' `struct file`.

Fix it by zapping registered rings on execve(). This is implemented by
moving the io_uring_unreg_ringfd() from io_uring_files_cancel() into its
callee __io_uring_cancel(), which is called from io_uring_task_cancel() on
execve.

This could probably be exploited *on 32-bit kernels* by leaking 2^32
references to the same ring, because the file refcount is stored in a
pointer-sized field and get_file() doesn't have protection against
refcount overflow, just a WARN_ONCE(); but on 64-bit it should have no
impact beyond a memory leak.

Add cancelable uring_cmd to provide mechanism to driver for cancelling
pending commands in its own way.

Add API of io_uring_cmd_mark_cancelable() for driver to mark one command as
cancelable, then io_uring will cancel this command in
io_uring_cancel_generic(). ->uring_cmd() callback is reused for canceling
command in driver's way, then driver gets notified with the cancelling
from io_uring.

io_uring: Pass whole sqe to commands

Currently uring CMD operation relies on having large SQEs, but future
operations might want to use normal SQE.

The io_uring_cmd currently only saves the payload (cmd) part of the SQE,
but, for commands that use normal SQE size, it might be necessary to
access the initial SQE fields outside of the payload/cmd block. So,
saves the whole SQE other than just the pdu.

This changes slightly how the io_uring_cmd works, since the cmd
structures and callbacks are not opaque to io_uring anymore. I.e, the
callbacks can look at the SQE entries, not only, in the cmd structure.

The main advantage is that we don't need to create custom structures for
simple commands.

Creates io_uring_sqe_cmd() that returns the cmd private data as a null
pointer and avoids casting in the callee side.
Also, make most of ublk_drv's sqe->cmd priv structure into const, and use
io_uring_sqe_cmd() to get the private structure, removing the unwanted
cast. (There is one case where the cast is still needed since the
header->{len,addr} is updated in the private structure)

io_uring: add support for registering ring file descriptors

Lots of workloads use multiple threads, in which case the file table is
shared between them. This makes getting and putting the ring file
descriptor for each io_uring_enter(2) system call more expensive, as it
involves an atomic get and put for each call.

Similarly to how we allow registering normal file descriptors to avoid
this overhead, add support for an io_uring_register(2) API that allows
to register the ring fds themselves:

1) IORING_REGISTER_RING_FDS - takes an array of io_uring_rsrc_update
structs, and registers them with the task.
2) IORING_UNREGISTER_RING_FDS - takes an array of io_uring_src_update
structs, and unregisters them.

When a ring fd is registered, it is internally represented by an offset.
This offset is returned to the application, and the application then
uses this offset and sets IORING_ENTER_REGISTERED_RING for the
io_uring_enter(2) system call. This works just like using a registered
file descriptor, rather than a real one, in an SQE, where
IOSQE_FIXED_FILE gets set to tell io_uring that we're using an internal
offset/descriptor rather than a real file descriptor.

In initial testing, this provides a nice bump in performance for
threaded applications in real world cases where the batch count (eg
number of requests submitted per io_uring_enter(2) invocation) is low.
In a microbenchmark, submitting NOP requests, we see the following
increases in performance:

Requests per syscall Baseline Registered Increase
----------------------------------------------------------------
1 ~7030K ~8080K +15%
2 ~13120K ~14800K +13%
4 ~22740K ~25300K +11%

io_uring: remove files pointer in cancellation functions

When doing cancellation, we use a parameter to indicate where it's from

struct files* as it is not necessary.
