So this found something funky, we really should only be picking up
the next request if we're dropping the final reference to the
request. And io_put_req_find_next() also says that in the comment,
but it always looks it up. That doesn't seem safe at all, I think
this is what it should be:

    io_uring: pick up link work on submit reference drop
    
    If work completes inline, then we should pick up a dependent link item
    in __io_queue_sqe() as well. If we don't do so, we're forced to go async
    with that item, which is suboptimal.
    
    This also fixes an issue with io_put_req_find_next(), which always looks
    up the next work item. That should only be done if we're dropping the
    last reference to the request, to prevent multiple lookups of the same
    work item.
