[PATCH v2] io_uring: reduce latency by reissueing the operation

[Olivier Langlois <olivier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is quite frequent that when an operation fails and returns EAGAIN,
the data becomes available between that failure and the call to
vfs_poll() done by io_arm_poll_handler().

Detecting the situation and reissuing the operation is much faster
than going ahead and push the operation to the io-wq.
