io_uring: prevent sq_thread from spinning when it should stop
This patch drops 'cur_mm' before calling cond_resched(), to prevent the sq_thread from spinning even when the user process is finished. Before this patch, if the user process ended without closing the io_uring fd, the sq_thread continues to spin until the 'sq_thread_idle' timeout ends. In the worst case where the 'sq_thread_idle' parameter is bigger than INT_MAX, the sq_thread will spin forever. Fixes: 6c271ce2f1d5 ("io_uring: add submission polling") Signed-off-by: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
