From: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e0deb6a025ae8c850dc8685be39fb27b06c88736 ] If an opcode handler semi-reliably returns -EAGAIN, io_wq_submit_work() might continue busily hammer the same handler over and over again, which is not ideal. The -EAGAIN handling in question was put there only for IOPOLL, so restrict it to IOPOLL mode only where there is no other recourse than to retry as we cannot wait.
