I'll send a patch to add that mode for review tomorrow morning.

The only real *hot path* that depended on a libc function was
io_uring_submit(). It used syscall(2) function.

But now even when compiled with libc, we no longer use syscall(2),
instead we use inline assembly to invoke syscall. So there is nothing to
worry about performance here.

Side note:
liburing still uses syscall(2) on architectures other than x86, x86-64
and aarch64.
