This PR adds a new backend using
io_uringwith theliburinglibrary, supporting both file and block device backends.I've been running this at home for a few months without issue, and figured it's about time I open a PR to bring it into upstream.
This backend supports WRITE, READ, SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE, and UNMAP operations
UNMAP is handled a bit special, since we can receive multiple in a single request, and need to perform a different action depending on if the backing device is a block device or regular file.
io_uring, but we still need to wait for that to make it into the stable kernel, and for liburing to be updated.
