I suspect a bug in the previous patches, because this is what the
forward port looks like. First, for reference, the current results:
init_flags=3000
Wait on startup
3767: my fd 3, other 4
3768: my fd 4, other 3

and here's with io_uring-msg_ring.1, which is just a straight forward
forward port of the previous patches on the same base as v2:
init_flags=3000
