Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: pass in EPOLL_URING_WAKE for eventfd signaling and
 wakeups

Pass in EPOLL_URING_WAKE when signaling eventfd or doing poll related
wakups, so that we can check for a circular event dependency between
eventfd and epoll. If this flag is set when our wakeup handlers are
called, then we know we have a dependency that needs to terminate
multishot requests.

eventfd and epoll are the only such possible dependencies.
