Currently, UBLK_IO_REGISTER_IO_BUF and UBLK_IO_UNREGISTER_IO_BUF are only permitted on the ublk_io's daemon task. But this restriction is unnecessary. ublk_register_io_buf() calls __ublk_check_and_get_req() to look up the request from the tagset and atomically take a reference on the request without accessing the ublk_io. ublk_unregister_io_buf() doesn't use the q_id or tag at all. So allow these opcodes even on tasks other than io->task. Handle UBLK_IO_UNREGISTER_IO_BUF before obtaining the ubq and io since the buffer index being unregistered is not necessarily related to the specified q_id and tag. Add a feature flag UBLK_F_BUF_REG_OFF_DAEMON that userspace can use to determine whether the kernel supports off-daemon buffer registration.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
