Jens Axboe b898b8c99e io_uring/sqpoll: wait on sqd->wait for thread parking
io_sqd_handle_event() just does a mutex unlock/lock dance when it's
supposed to park, somewhat relying on full ordering with the thread
trying to park it which does a similar unlock/lock dance on sqd->lock.
However, with adaptive spinning on mutexes, this can waste an awful
lot of time. Normally this isn't very noticeable, as parking and
unparking the thread isn't a common (or fast path) occurence. However,
in testing ring resizing, it's testing exactly that, as each resize
will require the SQPOLL to safely park and unpark.

Have io_sq_thread_park() explicitly wait on sqd->park_pending being
zero before attempting to grab the sqd->lock again.

In a resize test, this brings the runtime of SQPOLL down from about
60 seconds to a few seconds, just like the !SQPOLL tests. And saves
a ton of spinning time on the mutex, on both sides.

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 reStructuredText 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.
