Jens Axboe 9e810bd995 io_uring/sqpoll: work around a potential audit memory leak
[ Upstream commit c4ce0ab276 ]

kmemleak complains that there's a memory leak related to connect
handling:

unreferenced object 0xffff0001093bdf00 (size 128):
comm "iou-sqp-455", pid 457, jiffies 4294894164
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
02 00 fa ea 7f 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................
backtrace (crc 2e481b1a):

[<00000000d999b491>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

which can can happen if:

1) The command type does something on the prep side that triggers an
   audit call.
2) The thread hasn't done any operations before this that triggered
   an audit call inside ->issue(), where we have audit_uring_entry()
   and audit_uring_exit().

Work around this by issuing a blanket NOP operation before the SQPOLL
does anything.

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.
