io_uring/msg_ring: kill alloc_cache for io_kiocb allocations

[ Upstream commit df8922a ]

A recent commit:

fc582cd ("io_uring/msg_ring: ensure io_kiocb freeing is deferred for RCU")

fixed an issue with not deferring freeing of io_kiocb structs that
msg_ring allocates to after the current RCU grace period. But this only
covers requests that don't end up in the allocation cache. If a request
goes into the alloc cache, it can get reused before it is sane to do so.
A recent syzbot report would seem to indicate that there's something
there, however it may very well just be because of the KASAN poisoning
that the alloc_cache handles manually.

Rather than attempt to make the alloc_cache sane for that use case, just
drop the usage of the alloc_cache for msg_ring request payload data.

Fixes: 50cf5f3 ("io_uring/msg_ring: add an alloc cache for io_kiocb entries")
