Jens Axboe 7c9e7f0fe0 io_uring: fix potential deadlock in io_poll_wake()
We attempt to run the poll completion inline, but we're using trylock to
do so. This avoids a deadlock since we're grabbing the locks in reverse
order at this point, we already hold the poll wq lock and we're trying
to grab the completion lock, while the normal rules are the reverse of
that order.

IO completion for a timeout link will need to grab the completion lock,
but that's not safe from this context. Put the completion under the
completion_lock in io_poll_wake(), and mark the request as entering
the completion with the completion_lock already held.

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.
