io_uring: fix incorrect unlikely() usage in io_waitid_prep()

[ Upstream commit 4ec703ec0c384a2199808c4eb2e9037236285a8d ]

The negation operator is incorrectly placed outside the unlikely()
macro:

    if (!unlikely(iwa))

This inverts the compiler branch prediction hint, marking the NULL case
as likely instead of unlikely. The intent is to indicate that allocation
failures are rare, consistent with common kernel patterns.

 Moving the negation inside unlikely():

    if (unlikely(!iwa))
