We currently setup the io_wq with a static set of mm and creds. Even for a single-use io-wq per io_uring, this is suboptimal as we have may have multiple enters of the ring. For sharing the io-wq backend, it doesn't work at all. Switch to passing in the creds and mm when the work item is setup. This means that async work is no longer deferred to the io_uring mm and creds, it is done with the current mm and creds. Flag this behavior with IORING_FEAT_CUR_PERSONALITY, so applications know they can rely on the current personality (mm and creds) being the same for direct issue and async issue.

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.
