I don't like this very much at all. As it stands, the first cacheline
of io_kiocb is set aside for request-private data. io_rw is already
exactly 64 bytes, which means that you're now growing io_rw beyond
a cacheline and increasing the size of io_kiocb as a whole.

Maybe you can reuse io_rw->len for this, as that is only used on the
submission side of things.
