Here's the 5.10 and 5.15-stable variant of this.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] io_uring/io-wq: limit retrying worker initialisation

commit 0453aad676ff99787124b9b3af4a5f59fbe808e2 upstream.

If io-wq worker creation fails, we retry it by queueing up a task_work.
tasK_work is needed because it should be done from the user process
context. The problem is that retries are not limited, and if queueing a
task_work is the reason for the failure, we might get into an infinite
loop.

It doesn't seem to happen now but it would with the following patch
executing task_work in the freezer's loop. For now, arbitrarily limit the
number of attempts to create a worker.
