The commit "Use io_uring_register_ring_fd() to skip fd operations" broke
when booting a guest with iothread and io_uring. That is because the
io_uring_register_ring_fd() call is made from the main thread instead of
IOThread where io_uring_submit() is called. It can not be guaranteed
to register the ring fd in the correct thread or unregister the same ring
fd if the IOThread is disabled. This optimization is not critical so we
will revert previous commit.

This reverts commit e2848bc574fe2715c694bf8fe9a1ba7f78a1125a
and 77e3f038af1764983087e3551a0fde9951952c4d.

Yes, we did hit this bug as well, in the QEMU 7.1 package, for openSUSE
Tumbleweed (more info
here: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1204082)

FWIW, I can confirm that applying this patch fixes the issue, so this
can have:

Right, maybe we can call it on the first submit.

Yep, better to revert for now:

Should we queue this for stable?
