Just out of curiosity:

What's the purpose of doing that via io_uring? Non-blocking sys_tee()
just shoves around some metadata, it doesn't do any I/O, right? Is
this purely for syscall-batching reasons? (And does that mean that you
would also add syscalls like epoll_wait() and futex() to io_uring?) Or
is this because you're worried about blocking on the pipe mutex?
