Public bug reported:

Placeholder for full MIR template.

In the meantime, what prompted me to do this was that samba 4.12.x can
use liburing to build a vfs module, but samba-vfs-modules is in main.

That particular vfs module in samba 4.12.2 has a serious data corruption
bug[1], but it's being fixed.

More data about uring, to add to this MIR in the reasoning section:

"""
io_uring is a powerful new way to do asynchronous I/O programming under Linux. 
Doing away with various limitations of previous generation I/O subsystems, 
io_uring holds immense promise. For more details on what io_uring brings to the 
table, please see the chapter What is io_uring?.
