Yes, when I saw this original posting I did discuss it with Pavel as
well, and we agree that the same issue exists there. Which isn't too
surprising, as that's where the io_uring poll code from originally.

to io_uring as well. Would be nice for both verifying the fix, but also
to carry in the io_uring regression tests for the future.
