io_uring: split sqe-prep and async setup

Browse source

There are two kinds of opcode-specific preparations we do. The first is
just initialising req with what is always needed for an opcode and
reading all non-generic SQE fields. And the second is copying some of
the stuff like iovec preparing to punt a request to somewhere async,
e.g. to io-wq or for draining. For requests that have tried an inline
execution but still needing to be punted, the second prep type is done
by the opcode handler itself.

Currently, we don't explicitly split those preparation steps, but
combining both of them into io_*_prep(), altering the behaviour by
allocating ->async_data. That's pretty messy and hard to follow and also
gets in the way of some optimisations.

Split the steps, leave the first type as where it is now, and put the
second into a new io_req_prep_async() helper. It may make us to do opcode
switch twice, but it's worth it.
