Jens Axboe c92fcfc2ba io_uring: avoid indirect function calls for the hottest task_work
We use task_work for a variety of reasons, but doing completions or
triggering rety after poll are by far the hottest two. Use the indirect
funtion call wrappers to avoid the indirect function call if
CONFIG_RETPOLINE is set.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
