Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.9 16/33] io_uring: handle -EOPNOTSUPP on path resolution

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

[ Upstream commit 944d1444d53f5a213457e5096db370cfd06923d4 ]

Any attempt to do path resolution on /proc/self from an async worker will
yield -EOPNOTSUPP. We can safely do that resolution from the task itself,
and without blocking, so retry it from there.

Ideally io_uring would know this upfront and not have to go through the
worker thread to find out, but that doesn't currently seem feasible.
