I'd rather entertain NOT using llists for this in the first place, as it

the need for a retry list necessarily, as I think we'd be better off
with a lockless retry list still. But at least it'd get rid of the
reversing. Let me see if I can dig out that patch... Totally orthogonal
to this topic, obviously.
It's here:

I did improve it further but never posted it again, fwiw.
io_req_local_work_add() needs a smp_mb() after unlock, see comments,
release/unlock doesn't do it.
