[PATCH 7/8] epoll: replace gotos with a proper loop

From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh
Date: Fri Nov 06 2020 - 18:18:01 EST


From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@xxxxxxxxxx>

The existing loop is pointless, and the labels make it really
hard to follow the structure.

Replace that control structure with a simple loop that returns
when there are new events, there is a signal, or the thread has
timed out.
