We needed fake nodes in __io_run_local_work() and to avoid unecessary wake ups while the task already running task_works, but we don't need them anymore since wake ups are protected by cq_waiting, which is always cleared by the time we're executing deferred task_work items. Note that because of loose sync around cq_waiting clearing io_req_local_work_add() may wake the task more than once, but that's fine and should be rare to not hurt perf.

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.
