6.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> commit 73eaa2b583493b680c6f426531d6736c39643bfb upstream. Rather than use the system unbound event workqueue, use an io_uring specific one. This avoids dependencies with the tty, which also uses the system_unbound_wq, and issues flushes of said workqueue from inside its poll handling.
