All our task_work handling is targeted at the state in the io_kiocb
itself, which is what it is being used for. However, MSG_RING rolls its
own task_work handling, ignoring how that is usually done.

In preparation for switching MSG_RING to be able to use the normal
task_work handling, add io_req_task_work_add_remote() which allows the
caller to pass in the target io_ring_ctx.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
