Pavel Begunkov b1b6b5a30d kernel/io_uring: cancel io_uring before task works
For cancelling io_uring requests it needs either to be able to run
currently enqueued task_works or having it shut down by that moment.
Otherwise io_uring_cancel_files() may be waiting for requests that won't
ever complete.

Go with the first way and do cancellations before setting PF_EXITING and
so before putting the task_work infrastructure into a transition state
where task_work_run() would better not be called.

README

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.
