The commit "Use io_uring_register_ring_fd() to skip fd operations" broke
when booting a guest with iothread and io_uring. That is because the
io_uring_register_ring_fd() call is made from the main thread instead of
IOThread where io_uring_submit() is called. It can not be guaranteed
to register the ring fd in the correct thread or unregister the same ring
fd if the IOThread is disabled. This optimization is not critical so we
will revert previous commit.
This reverts commit e2848bc574
and 77e3f038af.

The commit "Use io_uring_register_ring_fd() to skip fd operations" uses
warn_report but did not include the header file "qemu/error-report.h".
This causes "error: implicit declaration of function ‘warn_report’".
Include this header file.

Jens Axboe has confirmed that short reads are rare but can happen:
https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/YsU%2FCGkl9ZXUI+Tj@stefanha-x1.localdomain/T/#m729963dc577d709b709c191922e98ec79d7eef54
The luring_resubmit_short_read() comment claimed they were only due to a
specific io_uring bug that was fixed in Linux commit 9d93a3f5a0c
("io_uring: punt short reads to async context"), which is wrong.
Dominique Martinet found that a btrfs bug also causes short reads. There
may be more kernel code paths that result in short reads.
Let's consider short reads fair game.

sqeq.off here is the offset to read within the disk image, so obviously
not 'nread' (the amount we just read), but as the author meant to write
its current value incremented by the amount we just read.
Normally recent versions of linux will not issue short reads,
but it can happen so we should fix this.
This lead to weird image corruptions when short read happened

Linux recently added a new io_uring(7) optimization API that QEMU
doesn't take advantage of yet. The liburing library that QEMU uses
has added a corresponding new API calling io_uring_register_ring_fd().
When this API is called after creating the ring, the io_uring_submit()
library function passes a flag to the io_uring_enter(2) syscall
allowing it to skip the ring file descriptor fdget()/fdput()
operations. This saves some CPU cycles.

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.
For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.
By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.
The following data was collected with virtio-blk num-queues=2
event_idx=off using an IOThread. Before:
168k IOPS, IOThread syscalls:
9837.115 ( 0.020 ms): IO iothread1/620155 io_submit(ctx_id: 140512552468480, nr: 16, iocbpp: 0x7fcb9f937db0) = 16
9837.158 ( 0.002 ms): IO iothread1/620155 write(fd: 103, buf: 0x556a2ef71b88, count: 8) = 8
9837.161 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 write(fd: 104, buf: 0x556a2ef71b88, count: 8) = 8
9837.163 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 ppoll(ufds: 0x7fcb90002800, nfds: 4, tsp: 0x7fcb9f1342d0, sigsetsize: 8) = 3
9837.164 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 107, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8
9837.174 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 105, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8
9837.176 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 106, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8
9837.209 ( 0.035 ms): IO iothread1/620155 io_submit(ctx_id: 140512552468480, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fca7d0cebe0) = 32
174k IOPS (+3.6%), IOThread syscalls:
9809.566 ( 0.036 ms): IO iothread1/623061 io_submit(ctx_id: 140539805028352, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fd0cdd62be0) = 32
9809.625 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/623061 write(fd: 103, buf: 0x5647cfba5f58, count: 8) = 8
9809.627 ( 0.002 ms): IO iothread1/623061 write(fd: 104, buf: 0x5647cfba5f58, count: 8) = 8
9809.663 ( 0.036 ms): IO iothread1/623061 io_submit(ctx_id: 140539805028352, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fd0d0388b50) = 32
Notice that ppoll(2) and eventfd read(2) syscalls are eliminated because
the IOThread stays in polling mode instead of falling back to file
descriptor monitoring.
As usual, polling is not implemented on Windows so this patch ignores
the new io_poll_read() callback in aio-win32.c.

Linux SCSI can throw spurious -EAGAIN in some corner cases in its
completion path, which will end up being the result in the completed
io_uring request.
Resubmitting such requests should allow block jobs to complete, even
if such spurious errors are encountered.

In qemu_luring_poll_cb() we are not using the cqe peeked from the
CQ ring. We are using io_uring_peek_cqe() only to see if there
are cqes ready, so we can replace it with io_uring_cq_ready().

As recently documented [1], io_uring_enter(2) syscall can return an
error (errno=EINTR) if the operation was interrupted by a delivery
of a signal before it could complete.
This should happen when IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS flag is used, for
example during io_uring_submit_and_wait() or during io_uring_submit()
when IORING_SETUP_IOPOLL is enabled.
We shouldn't have this problem for now, but it's better to prevent it.
