ublk uses io_uring_cmd_complete_in_task()(io_req_task_work_add())
heavily. So I tried this patchset, looks not see obvious change
on both IOPS and context switches when running 't/io_uring /dev/ublkb0',
and it is one null ublk target(ublk add -t null -z -u 1 -q 2), IOPS
is ~2.8M.

But ublk applies batch schedule similar with io_uring before calling
io_uring_cmd_complete_in_task().
