Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] io_uring/uring_cmd: avoid double indirect call in task work dispatch

Define uring_cmd implementation callback functions to have the
io_req_tw_func_t signature to avoid the additional indirect call and
save 8 bytes in struct io_uring_cmd.

v4:
- Rebase on "io_uring: unify task_work cancelation checks"
- Small cleanup in io_fallback_req_func()
- Avoid intermediate variables where IO_URING_CMD_TASK_WORK_ISSUE_FLAG
  is only used once (Christoph)

v3:
- Hide io_kiocb from uring_cmd implementations
- Label the 8 reserved bytes in struct io_uring_cmd (Ming)

v2:
- Define the uring_cmd callbacks with the io_req_tw_func_t signature
  to avoid the macro defining a hidden wrapper function (Christoph)

Caleb Sander Mateos (3):
  io_uring: only call io_should_terminate_tw() once for ctx
  io_uring: add wrapper type for io_req_tw_func_t arg
  io_uring/uring_cmd: avoid double indirect call in task work dispatch
