Jens Axboe 9a56a2323d io_uring: use fget/fput_many() for file references
Add a separate io_submit_state structure, to cache some of the things
we need for IO submission.

One such example is file reference batching. io_submit_state. We get as
many references as the number of sqes we are submitting, and drop
unused ones if we end up switching files. The assumption here is that
we're usually only dealing with one fd, and if there are multiple,
hopefuly they are at least somewhat ordered. Could trivially be extended
to cover multiple fds, if needed.

On the completion side we do the same thing, except this is trivially
done just locally in io_iopoll_reap().

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.
