Pavel Begunkov a75457f630 io_uring: fix blocking inline submission
commit 976517f162a05f4315b2373fd11585c395506259 upstream.

There is a complaint against sys_io_uring_enter() blocking if it submits
stdin reads. The problem is in __io_file_supports_async(), which
sees that it's a cdev and allows it to be processed inline.

Punt char devices using generic rules of io_file_supports_async(),
including checking for presence of *_iter() versions of rw callbacks.
Apparently, it will affect most of cdevs with some exceptions like
null and zero devices.

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 Restructured Text 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.
