io_uring/io-wq: only create a new worker if it can make progress
Hashed work is serialized by io-wq, intended to be used for cases like
serializing buffered writes to a regular file, where the file system
will serialize the workers anyway with a mutex or similar. Since they
would be forcibly serialized and blocked, it's more efficient for io-wq
to handle these individually rather than issue them in parallel.
If a worker is currently handling a hashed work item and gets blocked,
don't create a new worker if the next work item is also hashed and
mapped to the same bucket. That new worker would not be able to make any
progress anyway.
