If a provided buffer ring is setup with IOU_PBUF_RING_MMAP, then the
kernel allocates the memory for it and the application is expected to
mmap(2) this memory. However, io_uring uses remap_pfn_range() for this
operation, so we cannot rely on normal munmap/release on freeing them
for us.
Stash an io_buf_free entry away for each of these, if any, and provide
a helper to free them post ->release().

============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
