[PATCH for-next 0/8] io_uring: multishot recv

[Dylan Yudaken]

This series adds support for multishot recv/recvmsg to io_uring.

The idea is that generally socket applications will be continually
enqueuing a new recv() when the previous one completes. This can be
improved on by allowing the application to queue a multishot receive,
which will post completions as and when data is available. It uses the
provided buffers feature to receive new data into a pool provided by
the application.

This is more performant in a few ways:
* Subsequent receives are queued up straight away without requiring the
  application to finish a processing loop.
* If there are more data in the socket (sat the provided buffer
  size is smaller than the socket buffer) then the data is immediately
  returned, improving batching.
*  Poll is only armed once and reused, saving CPU cycles

Running a small network benchmark [1] shows improved QPS of ~6-8% over a range of loads.
