I'm happy to do that.

Sure. I'm a bit confused if you mean splitting the series into two or just moving io_uring bits to the end though. I'll send a v9 with io_uring bits moved to the end of the series and if you prefer it to be a completely separate series then let me know. Thank you for the help again, Linus! -- Dmitry Kadashev
