[v2,0/6] regions, param pre-mapping and reg waits extension

Message

A bit late but first we need a better and more generic API for
ring/memory/region registration (see Patch 4), and it changes the API
extending registered waits to be a generic parameter passing mechanism.
That will be useful in the future to implement a more flexible rings
creation, especially when we want to share same huge page / mapping.
Patch 6 uses it for registered wait arguments, and it can also be
used to optimise parameter passing for normal io_uring requests.

A dirty liburing branch with tests:

https://github.com/isilence/liburing/tree/io-uring-region-test

v2: cleaned up namings and commit messages
    moved all EXT_ARG_REG related bits Patch 5 -> 6 
    added alignment checks (Patch 6)

Pavel Begunkov (6):
  io_uring: fortify io_pin_pages with a warning
  io_uring: disable ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG for IOPOLL
  io_uring: temporarily disable registered waits
  io_uring: introduce concept of memory regions
  io_uring: add memory region registration
  io_uring: restore back registered wait arguments
