io_uring: remove unconditional looping in local task_work handling
[ Upstream commit 9fe3eaea4a3530ca34a8d8ff00b1848c528789ca ]
If we have a ton of notifications coming in, we can be looping in here
for a long time. This can be problematic for various reasons, mostly
because we can starve userspace. If the application is waiting on N
events, then only re-run if we need more events.
