Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

io_uring/sqpoll: ensure task state is TASK_RUNNING when running task_work

When the sqpoll is exiting and cancels pending work items, it may need
to run task_work. If this happens from within io_uring_cancel_generic(),
then it may be under waiting for the io_uring_task waitqueue. This
results in the below splat from the scheduler, as the ring mutex may be
attempted grabbed while in a TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state.

Ensure that the task state is set appropriately for that, just like what
is done for the other cases in io_run_task_work().

do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1 set at [] prepare_to_wait+0x88/0x2fc
