What 84965ff8a84f0 ("io_uring: if we see flush on exit, cancel related tasks") really wants is to cancel all relevant REQ_F_INFLIGHT requests reliably. That can be achieved by io_uring_cancel_files(), but we'll miss it calling io_uring_cancel_task_requests(files=NULL) from io_uring_flush(), because it will go through __io_uring_cancel_task_requests(). Just always call io_uring_cancel_files() during cancel, it's good enough for now.
