This patch drops 'cur_mm' before calling cond_resched(), to prevent
the sq_thread from spinning even when the user process is finished.
Before this patch, if the user process ended without closing the
io_uring fd, the sq_thread continues to spin until the
'sq_thread_idle' timeout ends.
In the worst case where the 'sq_thread_idle' parameter is bigger than
INT_MAX, the sq_thread will spin forever.
Fixes: 6c271ce2f1d5 ("io_uring: add submission polling")

Hi Jens,
I'm also sending a test to liburing for this case.
Cheers,
Stefano
