io_uring: re-issue block requests that failed because of resources
Mark the plug with nowait == true, which will cause requests to avoid
blocking on request allocation. If they do, we catch them and reissue
them from a task_work based handler.
Normally we can catch -EAGAIN directly, but the hard case is for split
requests. As an example, the application issues a 512KB request. The
block core will split this into 128KB if that's the max size for the
device. The first request issues just fine, but we run into -EAGAIN for
some latter splits for the same request. As the bio is split, we don't
get to see the -EAGAIN until one of the actual reads complete, and hence
we cannot handle it inline as part of submission.
This does potentially cause re-reads of parts of the range, as the whole
request is reissued. There's currently no better way to handle this.
