Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: always arm linked timeouts prior to issue

There are a few spots where linked timeouts are armed, and not all of
them adhere to the pre-arm, attempt issue, post-arm pattern. This can
be problematic if the linked request returns that it will trigger a
callback later, and does so before the linked timeout is fully armed.

Consolidate all the linked timeout handling into __io_issue_sqe(),
rather than have it spread throughout the various issue entry points.

Commit b53e523261bf058ea4a518b482222e7a277b186b upstream.

There are a few spots where linked timeouts are armed, and not all of
them adhere to the pre-arm, attempt issue, post-arm pattern. This can
be problematic if the linked request returns that it will trigger a
callback later, and does so before the linked timeout is fully armed.
