commit 792bb6eb862333658bf1bd2260133f0507e2da8d upstream.

[ 97.866748] a.out/2890 is trying to acquire lock:
[ 97.867829] ffff8881046763e8 (&ctx->uring_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at:
io_wq_submit_work+0x155/0x240
[ 97.869735]
[ 97.869735] but task is already holding lock:

__x64_sys_io_uring_enter+0x3f0/0x5b0
[ 97.873074]

While holding uring_lock, e.g. from inline execution, async cancel
request may attempt cancellations through io_wq_submit_work, which may
try to grab a lock. Delay it to task_work, so we do it from a clean
context and don't have to worry about locking.
