Public bug reported:

[ Impact ]

Using eventfd feature of io_uring causes system hangs when using eventfd
test [1], as commit [2] states, it needs the cherry-pick of the of
commit [3] but also [4] to expose the IORING_FEAT_CUR_PERSONALITY
feature (and maybe the commits in between).

[ Test case ]

 - Compile liburing and run test/eventfd
 - The test should run properly and not skipped
   + If only [3] is cherry-picked (that should be enough), the test should run
     once the skip code part is commented out.

[ Regression potential ]

These patches are already part of linux 5.6
