Subject: [PATCH] io_uring/kbuf: propagate BUF_MORE through early buffer commit
 path

When io_should_commit() returns true (eg for non-pollable files), buffer
commit happens at buffer selection time and sel->buf_list is set to
NULL. When __io_put_kbufs() generates CQE flags at completion time, it
calls __io_put_kbuf_ring() which finds a NULL buffer_list and hence
cannot determine whether the buffer was consumed or not. This means that
IORING_CQE_F_BUF_MORE is never set for non-pollable input with
incrementally consumed buffers.

Likewise for io_buffers_select(), which always commits upfront and
discards the return value of io_kbuf_commit().

Add REQ_F_BUF_MORE to store the result of io_kbuf_commit() during early
commit. Then __io_put_kbuf_ring() can check this flag and set
IORING_F_BUF_MORE accordingy.
