Hi,

We don't have these two commits in 5.4-stable:

ff002b30181d30cdfbca316dadd099c3ca0d739c 9392a27d88b9707145d713654eb26f0c29789e50

because they don't apply with the rework that was done in how io_uring handles offload. Since there's no io-wq in 5.4, it doesn't make sense to do two patches. I'm attaching my port of the two for 5.4-stable, it's been tested. Please queue it up for the next 5.4-stable, thanks!

I've copied this explanation into the commit message and queued it for 5.4, thanks Jens!
