This series implements bio pcpu caching for normal / IRQ-driven I/O
extending REQ_ALLOC_CACHE currently limited to iopoll. The allocation side
still only works from non-irq context, which is the reason it's not enabled
by default, but turning it on for other users (e.g. filesystems) is
as a matter of passing a flag.
t/io_uring with an Optane SSD setup showed +7% for batches of 32 requests
and +4.3% for batches of 8.
This looks much nicer to me than the previous attempt exposing the bio
internals to io_uring, thanks.
