Re: [PATCH v4 7/8] io_uring/zcrx: add refcount to ifq and remove ifq->ctx

Add a refcount to struct io_zcrx_ifq to track the number of rings that
share it. For now, this is only ever 1 i.e. not shared.

This refcount replaces the ref that the ifq holds on ctx->refs via the
page pool memory provider. This was used to keep the ifq around until
the ring ctx is being freed i.e. ctx->refs fall to 0. But with ifq now
being refcounted directly by the ring, and ifq->ctx removed, this is no
longer necessary.

Since ifqs now no longer hold refs to ring ctx, there isn't a need to
split the cleanup of ifqs into two: io_shutdown_zcrx_ifqs() in
io_ring_exit_work() while waiting for ctx->refs to drop to 0, and
io_unregister_zcrx_ifqs() after. Remove io_shutdown_zcrx_ifqs().

So an ifq now behaves like a normal refcounted object; the last ref from
a ring will free the ifq.

nothing protects it from going away under pp.
