Er...  So turn that argument into bool cancel_all, and pass false on exit and
true on exit?  While we are at it, what happens if you pass io_uring descriptor
to another process, close yours and then have the recepient close the one it
has gotten?  AFAICS, io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill(ctx) will be called in context
of a process that has never done anything io_uring-related.  Can it end up
trying to resubmit some requests?

I rather hope it can't happen, but I don't see what would prevent it...
