io_uring: make POLL_ADD/POLL_REMOVE scale better
One of the obvious use cases for these commands is networking, where
it's not uncommon to have tons of sockets open and polled for. The
current implementation uses a list for insertion and lookup, which works
fine for file based use cases where the count is usually low, it breaks
down somewhat for higher number of files / sockets. A test case with
30k sockets being polled for and cancelled takes:
real 0m6.968s
user 0m0.002s
sys 0m6.936s
with the patch it takes:
real 0m0.233s
user 0m0.010s
sys 0m0.176s
If you go to 50k sockets, it gets even more abysmal with the current
code:
real 0m40.602s
user 0m0.010s
sys 0m40.555s
with the patch it takes:
real 0m0.398s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.341s
Change is pretty straight forward, just replace the cancel_list with
a red/black tree instead.
