I'm a little confused on the purpose of iof->futex_op, it doesn't appear
to be used. Instead iof->futex_flags is used as the ~FUTEX_CMD_MASK part
of ops.

The latter actually makes sense since you encode the actual op in the
IOURING_OP_ space.

A little confusing since you then implement FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET, but using
FUTEX_WAIT ensures this goes -ENOSYS when setting FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME,
since you handle timeouts through the iouring thing.

Perhaps a comment?

Other than that, I think these things are indeed transparant wrt the
existing futex interface. If we add a flag this shouldn't care.
