Gotya, `INLINE`, `NO_OFFLOAD`, and `NO_IOWQ` all seem pretty reasonable. No real preference unfortunately. :)

Makes sense about the sqes. I still think this flag would be more useful with enter (for example maybe the copy_file_ranges would be faster if executed in parallel), but I'm...

Hmmm, this is kinda gross, but could enter be stateful for SQPOLL? As in it says "everything processed after now will be NO_IOWQ." The semantics of when "now" is seem...

@axboe so are you suggesting we have the same flag in both setup and enter? If so, that seems pretty reasonable to me. @FrankReh I like the idea of documenting...

Splice only works if one of the FDs is a pipe according the docs, so that won't work.
