io_uring: account user memory freed when exit has been queued

We currently account the memory after the exit work has been run, but
that leaves a gap where a process has closed its ring and until the
memory has been accounted as freed. If the memlocked ulimit is
borderline, then that can introduce spurious setup errors returning
-ENOMEM because the free work hasn't been run yet.

Account this as freed when we close the ring, as not to expose a tiny
gap where setting up a new ring can fail.
