From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org>

These 3 inline functions are for liburing internal use, it does not
make much sense to export them:

  uring_ptr_to_u64
  io_uring_cqe_iter_init
  io_uring_cqe_iter_next

Don't use IOURINGINLINE on them. Also, add a comment on the
IOURINGINLINE macro definition explaining when to use IOURINGINLINE
and remind the reader to add the exported function to liburing-ffi.map
if they introduce a function marked with IOURINGINLINE.

Applied, thanks!
