Merge branch 'work.poll2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull more poll annotation updates from Al Viro:
 "This is preparation to solving the problems you've mentioned in the
  original poll series.

  After this series, the kernel is ready for running

      for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
            L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
            for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
      done

  as a for bulk search-and-replace.

  After that, the kernel is ready to apply the patch to unify
  {de,}mangle_poll(), and then get rid of kernel-side POLL... uses
  entirely, and we should be all done with that stuff.

  Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can
  use EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to
  what is currently kernel-side POLL...).

  After the preparations (in this series) switch to returning EPOLL...
  from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical and kernel-side
  POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side POLL... and
  unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the
  search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for
  unified {de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step.

  After that we will have:

   - POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of
     ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse.

   - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t

   - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are
     visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for
     mangle/demangle)

   - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2)
     working correctly)"

* 'work.poll2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  annotate ep_scan_ready_list()
  ep_send_events_proc(): return result via esed->res
  preparation to switching ->poll() to returning EPOLL...
  add EPOLLNVAL, annotate EPOLL... and event_poll->event
  use linux/poll.h instead of asm/poll.h
  xen: fix poll misannotation
  smc: missing poll annotations
