It's more natural to use ktime/ns instead of keeping around usec,
especially since we're comparing it against user provided timers,
so convert napi busy poll internal handling to ktime. It's also nicer
since the type (ktime_t vs unsigned long) now tells the unit of measure.
Keep everything as ktime, which we convert to/from micro seconds for
IORING_[UN]REGISTER_NAPI. The net/ busy polling works seems to work with
usec, however it's not real usec as shift by 10 is used to get it from
nsecs, see busy_loop_current_time(), so it's easy to get truncated nsec
back and we get back better precision.
Note, we can further improve it later by removing the truncation and
maybe convincing net/ to use ktime/ns instead.

This adds an api to register and unregister the napi for io-uring. If
the arg value is specified when unregistering, the current napi setting
for the busy poll timeout is copied into the user structure. If this is
not required, NULL can be passed as the arg value.

This adds the napi busy polling support in io_uring.c. It adds a new
napi_list to the io_ring_ctx structure. This list contains the list of
napi_id's that are currently enabled for busy polling. The list is
synchronized by the new napi_lock spin lock. The current default napi
busy polling time is stored in napi_busy_poll_to. If napi busy polling
is not enabled, the value is 0.
In addition there is also a hash table. The hash table store the napi
id and the pointer to the above list nodes. The hash table is used to
speed up the lookup to the list elements. The hash table is synchronized
with rcu.
The NAPI_TIMEOUT is stored as a timeout to make sure that the time a
napi entry is stored in the napi list is limited.
The busy poll timeout is also stored as part of the io_wait_queue. This
is necessary as for sq polling the poll interval needs to be adjusted
and the napi callback allows only to pass in one value.
This has been tested with two simple programs from the liburing library
repository: the napi client and the napi server program. The client
sends a request, which has a timestamp in its payload and the server
replies with the same payload. The client calculates the roundtrip time
and stores it to calculate the results.
The client is running on host1 and the server is running on host 2 (in
the same rack). The measured times below are roundtrip times. They are
average times over 5 runs each. Each run measures 1 million roundtrips.
