io_uring: ensure REQ_F_ISREG is set async offload

If we're offloading requests directly to io-wq because IOSQE_ASYNC was
set in the sqe, we can miss hashing writes appropriately because we
haven't set REQ_F_ISREG yet. This can cause a performance regression
with buffered writes, as io-wq then no longer correctly serializes writes
to that file.

Ensure that we set the flags in io_prep_async_work(), which will cause
the io-wq work item to be hashed appropriately.
