io_uring: gate iowait schedule on having pending requests 

A previous commit made all cqring waits marked as iowait, as a way to
improve performance for short schedules with pending IO. However, for
use cases that have a special reaper thread that does nothing but
wait on events on the ring, this causes a cosmetic issue where we
know have one core marked as being "busy" with 100% iowait.

While this isn't a grave issue, it is confusing to users. Rather than
always mark us as being in iowait, gate setting of current->in_iowait
to 1 by whether or not the waiting task has pending requests.
