io_uring: add memory region registration
Regions will serve multiple purposes. First, with it we can decouple
ring/etc. object creation from registration / mapping of the memory they
will be placed in. We already have hacks that allow to put both SQ and
CQ into the same huge page, in the future we should be able to:
region = create_region(io_ring);
create_pbuf_ring(io_uring, region, offset=0);
create_pbuf_ring(io_uring, region, offset=N);
The second use case is efficiently passing parameters. The following
patch enables back on top of regions IORING_ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG, which
optimises wait arguments. It'll also be useful for request arguments
replacing iovecs, msghdr, etc. pointers. Eventually it would also be
handy for BPF as well if it comes to fruition.
