[PATCH 5.10 053/152] io_uring: dont take files/mm for a dead task

[ Upstream commit 621fadc22365f3cf307bcd9048e3372e9ee9cdcc ]

In rare cases a task may be exiting while io_ring_exit_work() trying to
cancel/wait its requests. It's ok for __io_sq_thread_acquire_mm()
because of SQPOLL check, but is not for __io_sq_thread_acquire_files().
Play safe and fail for both of them.
