There will be multiple places where req->task is used, so refcount-pin
it lazily with introduced *io_{get,put}_req_task(). We need to always
have valid ->task for cancellation reasons, but don't care about pinning
it in some cases. That's why it sets req->task in io_req_init() and
implements get/put laziness with a flag.
This also removes using @current from polling io_arm_poll_handler(),
etc., but doesn't change observable behaviour.

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.
