Experimental support for submitting and completing IO through rings
shared between the application and kernel.

The submission rings are struct iocb, like we would submit through
io_submit(), and the completion rings are struct io_event, like we
would pass in (and copy back) from io_getevents().

A new system call is added for this, io_ring_enter(). This system
call submits IO that is queued in the SQ ring, and/or completes IO
and stores the results in the CQ ring.

This could be augmented with a kernel thread that does the submission
and polling, then the application would never have to enter the
kernel to do IO.

Sample application: http://brick.kernel.dk/snaps/aio-ring.c
