futex: Pass in task to futex_queue()
[ Upstream commit 5e0e02f0d7e52cfc8b1adfc778dd02181d8b47b4 ] futex_queue() -> __futex_queue() uses 'current' as the task to store in the struct futex_q->task field. This is fine for synchronous usage of the futex infrastructure, but it's not always correct when used by io_uring where the task doing the initial futex_queue() might not be available later on. This doesn't lead to any issues currently, as the io_uring side doesn't support PI futexes, but it does leave a potentially dangling pointer which is never a good idea. Have futex_queue() take a task_struct argument, and have the regular callers pass in 'current' for that. Meanwhile io_uring can just pass in NULL, as the task should never be used off that path. In theory req->tctx->task could be used here, but there's no point populating it with a task field that will never be used anyway.
