[PATCH 4/8] char: xillybus: Rely on FMODE flags in poll method

[Eli Billauer <eli.billauer@gmail.com>]

The poll method of xillyusb.c previously tested chan->in_fifo and
chan->out_ep for being NULL in order to determine if the file is opened
for read and/or write, respectively. This works incorrectly if two files
are opened on the same device file, one for read and one for write.

In particular, if the release method is called for the file opened for
read while a poll is called for the file opened for write (and vice
versa), a race condition could lead to access of freed memory.

Relying on the FMODE flags as a guarantee for the validity of
chan->in_fifo and chan->out_ep as pointers to allocated memory is safe,
as the allocation and deallocation occurs with the open and release
methods for each file.
