io-wq: fix race between worker exiting and activating free worker

io-wq: fix race between worker exiting and activating free worker

Nadav correctly reports that we have a race between a worker exiting,
and new work being queued. This can lead to work being queued behind
an existing worker that could be sleeping on an event before it can
run to completion, and hence introducing potential big latency gaps
if we hit this race condition:

cpu0					cpu1
----					----
					io_wqe_worker()
					schedule_timeout()
					 // timed out
io_wqe_enqueue()
io_wqe_wake_worker()
// work_flags & IO_WQ_WORK_CONCURRENT
io_wqe_activate_free_worker()
					 io_worker_exit()

Fix this by having the exiting worker go through the normal decrement
of a running worker, which will spawn a new one if needed.

The free worker activation is modified to only return success if we
were able to find a sleeping worker - if not, we keep looking through
the list. If we fail, we create a new worker as per usual.
