io-wq uses an idle timeout to shrink the pool, but keeps the last worker around indefinitely to avoid churn. For tasks that used io_uring for file I/O and then stop using io_uring, this can leave an iou-wrk-* thread behind even after all io_uring instances are gone. This is unnecessary overhead and also gets in the way of process checkpoint/restore. Add an exit-on-idle state that makes all io-wq workers exit as soon as they become idle, and provide io_wq_set_exit_on_idle() to toggle it. Signed-off-by:Li Chen <me@linux.beauty> Signed-off-by:
