io_uring: fix REQ_F_COMP_LOCKED by killing it
REQ_F_COMP_LOCKED is used and implemented in a buggy way. The problem is
that the flag is set before io_put_req() but not cleared after, and if
that wasn't the final reference, the request will be freed with the flag
set from some other context, which may not hold a spinlock. That means
possible races with removing linked timeouts and unsynchronised
completion (e.g. access to CQ).
Instead of fixing REQ_F_COMP_LOCKED, kill the flag and use
task_work_add() to move such requests to a fresh context to free from
it, as was done with __io_free_req_finish().
