So afaict this isn't enough.
If you look into iterate_shared() you should see that it uses and
updates f_pos. But that can't work for io_uring and also isn't how
io_uring handles read and write. You probably need to use a local pos
similar to what io_uring does in rw.c for rw->kiocb.ki_pos. But in
contrast simply disallow any offsets for getdents completely. Thus not
relying on f_pos anywhere at all.
