Make the tracing formatting for user_data and flags consistent.
Having consistent formatting allows one for example to grep for a specific
user_data/flags and be able to trace a single sqe through easily.
Change user_data to 0x%llx and flags to 0x%x everywhere. The '0x' is
useful to disambiguate for example "user_data 100".
Additionally remove the '=' for flags in io_uring_req_failed, again for consistency.

This makes the io-uring tracepoints consistent. Where it makes sense
the tracepoints start with the following four fields:
- context (ring)
- request
- user_data
- opcode.

The information on whether eventfd is registered is not very useful and
would result in the tracepoint being enclosed in an rcu_readlock in a
later patch that tries to avoid ring quiesce for registering eventfd.

I recently had to look at a production problem where a request ended
up getting the dreaded -EINVAL error on submit. The most used and
hence useless of error codes, as it just tells you that something
was wrong with your request, but not more than that.
Let's dump the full sqe contents if we run into an issue failure,
that'll allow easier diagnosing of a wide variety of issues.

It currently takes a long, and while that's normally OK, the io_uring
limit is an int. Internally in io_uring it's an int, but sometimes it's
passed as a long. That can yield confusing results where a completions
seems to generate a huge result:
ou-sqp-1297-1298 [001] ...1 788.056371: io_uring_complete: ring 000000000e98e046, user_data 0x0, result 4294967171, cflags 0
which is due to -ECANCELED being stored in an unsigned, and then passed
in as a long. Using the right int type, the trace looks correct:
iou-sqp-338-339 [002] ...1 15.633098: io_uring_complete: ring 00000000e0ac60cf, user_data 0x0, result -125, cflags 0

The req pointer uniquely identify a specific request.
Having it in traces can provide valuable insights that is not possible
to have if the calling process is reusing the same user_data value.

New feature:
The "func-no-repeats" option in tracefs/options directory. When set
the function tracer will detect if the current function being traced
is the same as the previous one, and instead of recording it, it will
keep track of the number of times that the function is repeated in a row.
And when another function is recorded, it will write a new event that
shows the function that repeated, the number of times it repeated and
the time stamp of when the last repeated function occurred.
Enhancements:
In order to implement the above "func-no-repeats" option, the ring
buffer timestamp can now give the accurate timestamp of the event
as it is being recorded, instead of having to record an absolute
timestamp for all events. This helps the histogram code which no longer
needs to waste ring buffer space.
New validation logic to make sure all trace events that access
dereferenced pointers do so in a safe way, and will warn otherwise.
Fixes:
No longer limit the PIDs of tasks that are recorded for "saved_cmdlines"
to PID_MAX_DEFAULT (32768), as systemd now allows for a much larger
range. This caused the mapping of PIDs to the task names to be dropped
for all tasks with a PID greater than 32768.
Change trace_clock_global() to never block. This caused a deadlock.
Clean ups:
Typos, prototype fixes, and removing of duplicate or unused code.
Better management of ftrace_page allocations.

Currently io_uring tries any request in a non-blocking manner, if it can,
and then retries from a worker thread if we get -EAGAIN. Now that we have
a new and fancy poll based retry backend, use that to retry requests if
the file supports it.
This means that, for example, an IORING_OP_RECVMSG on a socket no longer
requires an async thread to complete the IO. If we get -EAGAIN reading
from the socket in a non-blocking manner, we arm a poll handler for
notification on when the socket becomes readable. When it does, the
pending read is executed directly by the task again, through the io_uring
task work handlers. Not only is this faster and more efficient, it also
means we're not generating potentially tons of async threads that just
sit and block, waiting for the IO to complete.
The feature is marked with IORING_FEAT_FAST_POLL, meaning that async
pollable IO is fast, and that poll<link>other_op is fast as well.

For some test apps at least, user_data is just zeroes. So it's not a
good way to tell what the command actually is. Add the opcode to the
issue trace point.

We don't have shadow requests anymore, so get rid of the shadow
argument. Add the user_data argument, as that's often useful to easily
match up requests, instead of having to look at request pointers.

Drop various work-arounds we have for workqueues:
- We no longer need the async_list for tracking sequential IO.
- We don't have to maintain our own mm tracking/setting.
- We don't need a separate workqueue for buffered writes. This didn't
even work that well to begin with, as it was suboptimal for multiple
buffered writers on multiple files.
- We can properly cancel pending interruptible work. This fixes
deadlocks with particularly socket IO, where we cannot cancel them
when the io_uring is closed. Hence the ring will wait forever for
these requests to complete, which may never happen. This is different
from disk IO where we know requests will complete in a finite amount
of time.
- Due to being able to cancel work interruptible work that is already
running, we can implement file table support for work. We need that
for supporting system calls that add to a process file table.
- It gets us one step closer to adding async support for any system
call.

To trace io_uring activity one can get an information from workqueue and
io trace events, but looks like some parts could be hard to identify via
this approach. Making what happens inside io_uring more transparent is
important to be able to reason about many aspects of it, hence introduce
the set of tracing events.
All such events could be roughly divided into two categories:
* those, that are helping to understand correctness (from both kernel
and an application point of view). E.g. a ring creation, file
registration, or waiting for available CQE. Proposed approach is to
get a pointer to an original structure of interest (ring context, or
request), and then find relevant events. io_uring_queue_async_work
also exposes a pointer to work_struct, to be able to track down
corresponding workqueue events.
* those, that provide performance related information. Mostly it's about
events that change the flow of requests, e.g. whether an async work
was queued, or delayed due to some dependencies. Another important
case is how io_uring optimizations (e.g. registered files) are
utilized.
