Sure; a stop gap solution, just don't build with liburing. In hindsight,
I should have set it to disabled per default, will do it now.

FWIW, the contributor for the io_uring feature, stated that it improved
the performance for some workloads. Though, I think the whole
integration is sub-optimal, as a new io_uring is created/configured for
each get_log_page call. So only for a large transfers there is going to
help.

I am currently working on libnvme 2 and I think we can improve this
quite a bit though. But for libnvme 1 I'd  recommend to disable
liburing.
