The only way to get out of io_iopoll_getevents() and continue iterating is to have empty iopoll_list, otherwise the main loop would just exit. So, instead of the unlock on 8th time heuristic, do that based on iopoll_list. Also, as no one can add new requests to iopoll_list while io_iopoll_check() hold uring_lock, it's useless to spin with the list empty, return in that case.

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.
