io_uring: use cond_resched() in io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill()

While working on to make io_uring sqpoll mode support syscalls that need
struct files_struct, I got cpu soft lockup in io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill(),

    while (ctx->sqo_thread && !wq_has_sleeper(&ctx->sqo_wait))
        cpu_relax();

above loop never has an chance to exit, it's because preempt isn't enabled
in the kernel, and the context calling io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill() and
io_sq_thread() run in the same cpu, if io_sq_thread calls a cond_resched()
yield cpu and another context enters above loop, then io_sq_thread() will
always in runqueue and never exit.

Use cond_resched() can fix this issue.
