Also, this work is part of GSoC. There is already code that is waiting for this
to fill in the missing pieces [0]. If you want me to add a sample/selftest that
demonstrates/tests how this can be used to reconstruct a task's io_uring, I can
certainly do that. We've already spent a few months contemplating on a few
approaches and this turned out to be the best/most powerful. At one point I had
to scrap some my earlier patches completely because they couldn't work with
descriptorless io_uring. Iterator seem like the best solution so far that can
adapt gracefully to feature additions in something seeing as heavy development
as io_uring.

Is that the main PR? 1095 changed files? Is it stale or something?
Is there a way to view the actual logic that exercises these bpf iterators?
