Looks like this actually got fixed in my for-5.3/io_uring branch which
I haven't pushed out yet. Once that's in, I'd suggest we send yours to
stable separately. Probably change the wording to:

When io_req_defer alloc memory fails, it will be -EAGAIN. But
io_submit_sqe cannot return immediately because the reference count for
req is still held. Ensure that we free it.
