We can run normal task_work without locking the ctx, however we try to lock anyway and most handlers prefer or require it locked. It might have been interesting to multi-submitter ring with high contention completing async read/write requests via task_work, however that will still need to go through io_req_complete_post() and potentially take the lock for rsrc node putting or some other case. In other words, it's hard to care about it, so alawys force the locking. The case described would also because of various io_uring caches.

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 reStructuredText 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.
