io_uring/rw: disable IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP
If an application does O_DIRECT writes with io_uring and the file system
supports IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP, then completions of the dio write side is
done from the task_work that will post the completion event for said
write as well.
Whenever a dio write is done against a file, the inode i_dio_count is
elevated. This enables other callers to use inode_dio_wait() to wait for
previous writes to complete. If we defer the full dio completion to
task_work, we are dependent on that task_work being run before the
inode i_dio_count can be decremented.
If the same task that issues io_uring dio writes with
IOCB_DIO_CALLER_COMP performs a synchronous system call that calls
inode_dio_wait(), then we can deadlock as we're blocked sleeping on
the event to become true, but not processing the completions that will
result in the inode i_dio_count being decremented.
Until we can guarantee that this is the case, then disable the deferred
caller completions.
