[patch 14/22] pollfs: pollable futex

[Davi Arnaut <davi@haxent.com.br>]

[-- Attachment #1: pollfs-futex.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4428 bytes --]

Asynchronously wait for FUTEX_WAKE operation on a futex if it still contains
a given value. There can be only one futex wait per file descriptor. However,
it can be rearmed (possibly at a different address) anytime.

The pollable futex approach is far superior (send and receive events from
userspace or kernel) to eventfd and fixes (supercedes) FUTEX_FD at the same time.

Building block for pollable semaphores and user-defined events.
