commit 976517f162a05f4315b2373fd11585c395506259 upstream. There is a complaint against sys_io_uring_enter() blocking if it submits stdin reads. The problem is in __io_file_supports_async(), which sees that it's a cdev and allows it to be processed inline. Punt char devices using generic rules of io_file_supports_async(), including checking for presence of *_iter() versions of rw callbacks. Apparently, it will affect most of cdevs with some exceptions like null and zero devices.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
