Jens Axboe 49ae66eb8c io_uring: defer linked-timeout chain splice out of hrtimer context
io_link_timeout_fn() is the hrtimer callback that fires when a linked
timeout expires. It currently calls io_remove_next_linked(prev) under
ctx->timeout_lock to splice the timeout request out of the link chain.
This is the only chain-mutation site that runs without ctx->uring_lock,
because hrtimer callbacks cannot take a mutex. Defer the splicing until
the task_work callback.
