commit 976517f162a05f4315b2373fd11585c395506259 upstream.
There is a complaint against sys_io_uring_enter() blocking if it submits stdin reads. The problem is in __io_file_supports_async(), which sees that it's a cdev and allows it to be processed inline.
Punt char devices using generic rules of io_file_supports_async(), including checking for presence of *_iter() versions of rw callbacks. Apparently, it will affect most of cdevs with some exceptions like null and zero devices.
