    Use io_uring_register_ring_fd() to skip fd operations · e2848bc5

    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.
