 "Lots of cleanups in here, hardening the code and/or making it easier
  to read and fixing bugs, but a core feature/change too adding support
  for real async buffered reads. With the latter in place, we just need
  buffered write async support and we're done relying on kthreads for
  the fast path. In detail:

   - Cleanup how memory accounting is done on ring setup/free (Bijan)

   - sq array offset calculation fixup (Dmitry)

   - Consistently handle blocking off O_DIRECT submission path (me)

   - Support proper async buffered reads, instead of relying on kthread

     from task_work, like we handle poll based retry. (me)

   - IO completion optimizations (me)

   - Fix race with accounting and ring fd install (me)
