Subject: [PATCH 5.7 125/166] io_uring: account user memory freed when exit has been queued

From: Jens Axboe <axboe@...nel.dk>

commit 309fc03a3284af62eb6082fb60327045a1dabf57 upstream.

We currently account the memory after the exit work has been run, but
that leaves a gap where a process has closed its ring and until the
memory has been accounted as freed. If the memlocked ulimit is
borderline, then that can introduce spurious setup errors returning
-ENOMEM because the free work hasn't been run yet.

Account this as freed when we close the ring, as not to expose a tiny
gap where setting up a new ring can fail.

Fixes: 85faa7b8346e ("io_uring: punt final io_ring_ctx wait-and-free to workqueue")
Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org # v5.7
