From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@xxxxxxxxxxx> io_uring_enter(), io_uring_register(), and io_uring_setup() are not declared in `<linux/io_uring.h>` (and never were). A previous commit adds the implementation of these functions in liburing. Change the include header to `<liburing.h>`. Then clarify that those functions don't intentionally set the `errno` variable. Instead they return a negative error code when the syscall fails. Side note: On architectures _other_ than x86, x86-64, and aarch64, those functions _do_ set the `errno`. This is because the syscall is done via libc. Users should not rely on this behavior as it may change in the future when nolibc support is expanded to other architectures.
