[PATCH V2 3/3] tuntap: don't add to waitqueue when POLLERR

From: Jason Wang
Date: Sat Jan 05 2013 - 04:42:52 EST


Currently, tun_chr_poll() returns POLLERR after waitqueue adding during device
unregistration. This would confuse some of its user such as vhost which assume
when POLLERR is returned, it wasn't added to the waitqueue. Fix this by
returning POLLERR before adding to waitqueue.
