[SRU][F][PATCH 1/1] io_uring: ensure IOPOLL locks around deferred work

CVE-2023-21400

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2078659

No direct upstream commit exists for this issue. It was fixed in
5.18 as part of a larger rework of the completion side.

io_commit_cqring() writes the CQ ring tail to make it visible, but it
also kicks off any deferred work we have. A ring setup with IOPOLL
does not need any locking around the CQ ring updates, as we're always
under the ctx uring_lock. But if we have deferred work that needs
processing, then io_queue_deferred() assumes that the completion_lock
is held, as it is for !IOPOLL.

Add a lockdep assertion to check and document this fact, and have
io_iopoll_complete() check if we have deferred work and run that
separately with the appropriate lock grabbed.

[chengen - apply the locking logic to the corresponding functions /
use spin_lock_irq because the same lock is used in the timer callback
function.]
