[ Upstream commit caf1aeaffc ]
We can have dependencies between epoll and io_uring. Consider an epoll
context, identified by the epfd file descriptor, and an io_uring file
descriptor identified by iofd. If we add iofd to the epfd context, and
arm a multishot poll request for epfd with iofd, then the multishot
poll request will repeatedly trigger and generate events until terminated
by CQ ring overflow. This isn't a desired behavior.
Add EPOLL_URING so that io_uring can pass it in as part of the poll wakeup
key, and io_uring can check for that to detect a potential recursive
invocation.

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.
