io-uring: Make statx API stable
One of the key architectual tenets is to keep the parameters for io-uring stable. After the call has been submitted, its value can be changed. Unfortunaltely this is not the case for the current statx implementation. IO-Uring change: This changes replaces the const char * filename pointer in the io_statx structure with a struct filename *. In addition it also creates the filename object during the prepare phase. With this change, the opcode also needs to invoke cleanup, so the filename object gets freed after processing the request. fs change: This replaces the const char* __user filename parameter in the two functions do_statx and vfs_statx with a struct filename *. In addition to be able to correctly construct a filename object a new helper function getname_statx_lookup_flags is introduced. The function makes sure that do_statx and vfs_statx is invoked with the correct lookup flags.
