io_uring: move struct io_kiocb from task_struct to io_uring_task



Rather than store the task_struct itself in struct io_kiocb, store
the io_uring specific task_struct. The life times are the same in terms
of io_uring, and this avoids doing some dereferences through the
task_struct. For the hot path of putting local task references, we can
deref req->tctx instead, which we'll need anyway in that function
regardless of whether it's local or remote references.

This is mostly straight forward, except the original task PF_EXITING
check needs a bit of tweaking. task_work is _always_ run from the
originating task, except in the fallback case, where it's run from a
kernel thread. Replace the potentially racy (in case of fallback work)
checks for req->task->flags with current->flags. It's either the still
the original task, in which case PF_EXITING will be sane, or it has
PF_KTHREAD set, in which case it's fallback work. Both cases should
prevent moving forward with the given request.
