commit 607ec89ed18f49ca59689572659b9c0076f1991f upstream.
IORING_OP_CLOSE is special in terms of cancelation, since it has an intermediate state where we've removed the file descriptor but hasn't closed the file yet. For that reason, it's currently marked with IO_WQ_WORK_NO_CANCEL to prevent cancelation. This ensures that the op is always run even if canceled, to prevent leaving us with a live file but an fd that is gone. However, with SQPOLL, since a cancel request doesn't carry any resources on behalf of the request being canceled, if we cancel before any of the close op has been run, we can end up with io-wq not having the ->files assigned. This can result in the following oops reported by Joseph:

Fix this by moving the IO_WQ_WORK_NO_CANCEL until _after_ we've modified the fdtable. Canceling before this point is totally fine, and running it in the io-wq context _after_ that point is also fine.
For 5.12, we'll handle this internally and get rid of the no-cancel flag, as IORING_OP_CLOSE is the only user of it.
