FWIW, I did a fairly naive conversion of the personalities IDR, because
efficiency really isn't the most important (you don't have a lot of
personalities, generally).  the buffer_idr seems like it might see a
lot more action than the personalities, so you might want to consider
something like:

+++ b/fs/io_uring.c
@@ -8543,7 +8543,8 @@ static void io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill(struct io_ring_ctx *ctx)
        if (ctx->rings)
                __io_cqring_overflow_flush(ctx, true, NULL, NULL);
        xa_for_each(&ctx->personalities, index, creds)
-               io_unregister_personality(ctx, index);
+               put_cred(creds);
+       xa_destroy(&ctx->personalities);
        mutex_unlock(&ctx->uring_lock);
 
        io_kill_timeouts(ctx, NULL, NULL);

to be more efficient.
