io_uring: Pass whole sqe to commands
Currently uring CMD operation relies on having large SQEs, but future
operations might want to use normal SQE.
The io_uring_cmd currently only saves the payload (cmd) part of the SQE,
but, for commands that use normal SQE size, it might be necessary to
access the initial SQE fields outside of the payload/cmd block. So,
saves the whole SQE other than just the pdu.
This changes slightly how the io_uring_cmd works, since the cmd
structures and callbacks are not opaque to io_uring anymore. I.e, the
callbacks can look at the SQE entries, not only, in the cmd structure.
The main advantage is that we don't need to create custom structures for
simple commands.
Creates io_uring_sqe_cmd() that returns the cmd private data as a null
pointer and avoids casting in the callee side.
Also, make most of ublk_drv's sqe->cmd priv structure into const, and use
io_uring_sqe_cmd() to get the private structure, removing the unwanted
cast. (There is one case where the cast is still needed since the
header->{len,addr} is updated in the private structure)
