Another change to the API io-wq worker limitation API added in 5.15,
apply the limit to all prior users that already registered a tctx. It
may be confusing as it's now, in particular the change covers the
following 2 cases:

TASK1                   | TASK2
_________________________________________________
ring = create()         |
                        | limit_iowq_workers()
*not limited*           |

TASK1                   | TASK2
_________________________________________________
ring = create()         |
                        | issue_requests()
limit_iowq_workers()    |
                        | *not limited*

A note on locking, it's safe to traverse ->tctx_list as we hold
->uring_lock, but do that after dropping sqd->lock to avoid possible
problems. It's also safe to access tctx->io_wq there because tasks
kill it only after removing themselves from tctx_list, see
io_uring_cancel_generic() -> io_uring_clean_tctx()
