I'm not sure it is related, but while rebasing I forgot to update the
right label in the error path.

Since the check of ring state is after the increase of ctx refcount, we
need to decrease it jumping to 'out' label instead of 'out_fput':
diff --git a/fs/io_uring.c b/fs/io_uring.c
index d00eb6bf6ce9..f35da516095a 100644

I'll send a patch ASAP and check if it solves this issue.
