This adds support for IORING_OP_FUTEX_WAITV, which allows registering a notification for a number of futexes at once. If one of the futexes are woken, then the request will complete with the index of the futex that got woken as the result. This is identical to what the normal vectored futex waitv operation does. Use like IORING_OP_FUTEX_WAIT, except sqe->addr must now contain a pointer to a struct futex_waitv array, and sqe->off must now contain the number of elements in that array. As flags are passed in the futex_vector array, and likewise for the value and futex address(es), sqe->addr2 and sqe->addr3 are also reserved for IORING_OP_FUTEX_WAITV. For cancelations, FUTEX_WAITV does not rely on the futex_unqueue() return value as we're dealing with multiple futexes. Instead, a separate per io_uring request atomic is used to claim ownership of the request. Waiting on N futexes could be done with IORING_OP_FUTEX_WAIT as well, but that punts a lot of the work to the application: 1) Application would need to submit N IORING_OP_FUTEX_WAIT requests, rather than just a single IORING_OP_FUTEX_WAITV. 2) When one futex is woken, application would need to cancel the remaining N-1 requests that didn't trigger. While this is of course doable, having a single vectored futex wait makes for much simpler application code.

Linux kernel
============
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.
