The patch below does not apply to the 5.7-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm
tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit

Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: hold 'ctx' reference around task_work queue +
 execute

We're holding the request reference, but we need to go one higher
to ensure that the ctx remains valid after the request has finished.
If the ring is closed with pending task_work inflight, and the
given io_kiocb finishes sync during issue, then we need a reference
to the ring itself around the task_work execution cycle.

5.4 doesn't need this patch, only 5.7+ as per the Cc stable instruction.
Did I type it wrong?

Oops, nope, my fault, you are correct, sorry, only 5.7+
