[PATCH 2/8] epoll: simplify signal handling

From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh
Date: Fri Nov 06 2020 - 18:18:26 EST


From: Soheil Hassas Yeganeh <soheil@xxxxxxxxxx>

Check signals before locking ep->lock, and immediately return
-EINTR if there is any signal pending.

This saves a few loads, stores, and branches from the hot path
and simplifies the loop structure for follow up patches.
