Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 2/2] io_uring: ignore POLLIN for recvmsg on MSG_ERRQUEUE

From: Luke Hsiao <lukehsiao@...gle.com>

Currently, io_uring's recvmsg subscribes to both POLLERR and POLLIN. In
the context of TCP tx zero-copy, this is inefficient since we are only
reading the error queue and not using recvmsg to read POLLIN responses.

This patch was tested by using a simple sending program to call recvmsg
using io_uring with MSG_ERRQUEUE set and verifying with printks that the
POLLIN is correctly unset when the msg flags are MSG_ERRQUEUE.
