io_cqring_timer_wakeup() is the timer expired callback which calls
wake_up_process() or io_cqring_wake() depending on DEFER_TASKRUN.

The original code calling schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock() uses
hrtimer_sleeper instead, which has a default timer expired callback set
to hrtimer_wakeup().

hrtimer_wakeup() only calls wake_up_process().

My question is: why this asymmetry? Why does the new custom callback
require io_cqring_wake()?
