Add a new flag IORING_REGISTER_USE_REGISTERED_RING (set via the high bit of the opcode) to treat the fd as a registered index rather than a file descriptor. This makes it possible for a library to open an io_uring, register the ring fd, close the ring fd, and subsequently use the ring entirely via registered index.

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.
