io_uring/sqpoll: work around a potential audit memory leak

kmemleak complains that there's a memory leak related to connect
handling:

which can can happen if:

1) The command type does something on the prep side that triggers an
   audit call.
2) The thread hasn't done any operations before this that triggered
   an audit call inside ->issue(), where we have audit_uring_entry()
   and audit_uring_exit().

Work around this by issuing a blanket NOP operation before the SQPOLL
does anything.
