io_uring: Use WRITE_ONCE() when writing to sq_flags
[ Upstream commit 20c0b38 ] The compiler should be forbidden from any strange optimization for async writes to user visible data-structures. Without proper protection, the compiler can cause write-tearing or invent writes that would confuse the userspace. However, there are writes to sq_flags which are not protected by WRITE_ONCE(). Use WRITE_ONCE() for these writes. This is purely a theoretical issue. Presumably, any compiler is very unlikely to do such optimizations.
